Why order from Air Plant Design Studio?
Hello and welcome to Air Plant Design Studio! We are so glad that you have found us. We started this business soon after we stumbled upon air plants in a shop in Saint Augustine Florida, and have been sending air plant love all over the country ever since!
So why should you order your air plants from us? Well, we have some pretty good reasons!We are a small family owned business that takes great care to ensure that we are sending out the best plants possible, and that all of our customers are happy with their purchases of air plants.
Environmentally Friendly Practices
We aim to apply sustainable and environmentally safe practices to every aspect of our business, big or small! All the cardboard boxes that we receive supplies in from plants to fertilizer bottles, are recycled. To cut down on the use of unnecessary packing material, we use brown paper bags to package our plants in before carefully packing in the box and also use recycled newsprint packing paper. You can reuse or recycle all packing material from your order, including the paper bag, tissue paper, packing paper, and the box.
Sustainably Grown & Harvested Air Plants
Of utmost importance to us at Air Plant Design Studio is to make sure that all the plants that we sell and send out into the world, are grown with sustainable practices. While we grow a lot of our own plants, a good amount of our mother stock and retail plants come from Guatemala, were they grow naturally. We only import from Tillandsia farms that practice sustainable harvesting. This "sustainably harvested" classification means that these farms aren’t collecting from the wild where some Tillandsia species are endangered, but are in fact, nursery grown. To import specific species into the USA, these growers have to hold certain permits that indicate that they adhere to these sustainability rules. On our end, we also have a CITES import permit that certifies we are permitted to import protected plant species like the T. xerographica and T. harrisii, plants that are both illegal to harvest from the wild. You can rest assured that when you purchase from us, we are doing our best to make sure that all plants that we sell are sustainably grown, and are not having a harmful impact on Tillandsia populations in the wild.
