Care

General Maintenance: Repot your fern once a year at the beginning of spring for optimum growth throughout the season. Rotate every couple of days for symmetrical growth

Temperature: 10 - 27 degrees Celsius is the ideal range. Do not expose to temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius

Light: These plants prefer bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight will burn the leaves and dry it out quickly. Near a south or east facing window is a great spot for these plants, or outside in mostly shade

Watering: Water these plants consistently, for best results give a good drink every couple of days to keep the appropriate amount of moisture and humidity. These plants will also benefit from misting

Soil: An organic-rich nutritious soil that is well draining, but retains moisture. You don't want a soil that will hold all of the water or the roots will rot.

Fertilizer: Fertilize once every month during the growing season with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer, or one specially made for ferns
