Pele’s Hair in nature just grows and hangs from trees and does not have roots.
It absorbs nutrients from the air through its leaves.
It is important to keep the plant strands hanging down and free so that the air can pass through.
This is a good reason to divide your clump when it gets too fat.
You can hang it in their covered patio thinking it will be OK without any further care…BUT remember that in nature it will get rain.
In the patio, without watering, it will die.
Just give it a spray with the garden hose or use a spray bottles or dunk the whole clump of Spanish Moss into a bucket of water for a minute or so.
About once a year give it a light feeding of Miracle Grow fertilizer mixed in water using a watering can.
Although it can take sun, Spanish Moss likes partial shade.
