Where can I go to get some good air plants? I have a cork tube i'd like to mount them on.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what type of vine in might use? I want to attach it to the tube as well and have them drap/hang off

Hiya mate...

I dont know about the US but, over here nearly every garden centre sells little tillandsias in packet for a really low price, they are brilliant.

Might be worth taking a took for some of them, maybe even in the supermarket?

You could try Ficus, Peperomia and maybe even some ephiphyte ferns, such some Davallia species....

On the cork that is

Good luck mate.
