FAQs, cleaning, and designing with artificial Xerographica and air plants:
- Most artificial Xerographica and air plants are made with combinations of plastic, polyester, and wire
- Occasionally dust your arrangements with a feather duster.
- Damp cleaning is not recommended for plants that are flocked.
- The base stems are often short and sturdy. Trim with wire cutters

- You may hot glue your floral foam to your container interior, although if you’re not mailing or moving your arrangement, it’s not necessary
- Cover your floral foam with dry moss, pebbles, or decorative sand
- Not designed for full sun, although will work outdoors on shaded patios and porches
- Pair with other air plants such as mosses, orchids, and bromeliads
