Mudpuppy Air Plant Pods

Michael McDowell of Mudpuppy designed these beautiful ceramic hanging air plant pods specifically for air plants (Tillandsia) after discovering that tillandsias will not survive in standing water and if water pools in their leaves it can harm them. Each pod is covered inside and out with his gorgeous glossy white glaze (and now new green glaze - see below) and comes with a generous amount of natural hemp cord all ready to hang. Because they are high fired, you can hang them outdoors as well but make sure to bring your air plants inside during cooler temperatures.

To secure the air plants Michael tucks a couple leaves inside if the bulb isn’t big enough to hang within the pod itself. Each arrives gift packaged and make the perfect house warming present. They look amazing individually or hung in groups! You can also display these right side up on a shelf or table just by taking the cord and hanger out.
