Its lush, bright green foliage creates beautiful texture and movement—perfect for adding depth to terrariums, planters, or humid spaces like bathrooms.

Care Tips ▾
Soil:
Thrives in rich, humus-filled, well-draining soil.
Incorporate compost or leaf mold for added moisture retention and nutrients.
Acidic to neutral pH preferred (around 6.0–7.0).
Fertilizer:
Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring.
Alternatively, use diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season.
Avoid overfeeding, which may reduce the fern’s natural grace.
Humidity:
Prefers high humidity.
Mist regularly if grown indoors or use a humidifier.
Outdoors, mulch around the base to conserve moisture and boost humidity near the roots.
