Air Plant?


Where do this elegant plant came from?

One day, some years back, a pint sized battered plant was found in my cactus pot. Thinking it's just another cactus, i left it as it is without watering or rooting it - months later it was thriving; it suddenly dawns on me that this might be an air plant!? Still, i left it alone.

Today, the plant had grown much; my newly acquainted neighbour warned that i move the plant indoor as air plants are highly valued and may just be carried off - one of such sizes cost about $10-15? He further advised that a log would be ideal for anchoring the light weight piece.

So it stands now at my window pane; basking in the evening sun.
