Advice

  • The fern does not tolerate a dry atmosphere. That's why we recommend you place it in your kitchen or bathroom.
  • It is child and pet friendly, non-toxic and safe for pets.
  • Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn its leaves.
  • Fertilising is not essential, but if you want to give it a boost in spring, give it a little feed with liquid fertiliser diluted in the watering.

Signs of weakness

  • Pale green leaves, dry potting mix: thirsty, under-watered plant
  • Yellowish lower leaves, wet potting mix: overwatering
