Sun Requirements ▾
Prefers bright, indirect light to part shade.
Ideal near north- or east-facing windows indoors.
Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch delicate fronds.
Watering Instructions ▾
Water when the top 1 inch of soil feels dry, keeping soil consistently moist but not soggy.
Never allow the soil to fully dry out.
Use room temperature water for best results.
Care Tips ▾
Soil:
Thrives in rich, well-draining, moisture-retentive soil.
A blend of peat, perlite, and compost or a high-quality fern potting mix is ideal.
Ensure containers have proper drainage.
Fertilizer:
Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a diluted balanced liquid fertilizer.
Avoid over-fertilizing, as sensitive roots can burn easily.
Humidity:
Requires high humidity (50–70%) to thrive.
Use a humidifier, mist regularly, or place on a tray with pebbles and water.
Dry air can cause browning or crisping at the tips of fronds.
