Meet Dave Lin, an air plant aficionado based in Scarborough, Ont. Dave has packed over 1000 houseplants into his cosy townhouse, including the many Tillandsias that he cares for, grows and sells air plants through his online business, Dave’s Air Plant Corner. In this episode of Houseplanted, Dave gives us a crash course in these curious plants and shares insider tips on how to give them the most optimal care.
