- Staghorn – Elkhorn ferns are fast growing hardy plants that have branched stems, complex roots and leaves. They got their name derived due to flat horn-like fronds. These plants possess antler-like foliage as well as a flat basal leaf. The flat leaves are of green colour and infertile in nature. These leaves turn to brown colour and papery as they get older. They overlap onto a mounting surface and provide stability for the fern. Staghorn ferns could be grown easily as indoor or outdoor plants.
Easy to care and requires low maintenance.
- Staghorn ferns will do good in presence of a bright environment with a splash of either rising or falling sunlight. They could survive in low light conditions, but avoid complete darkness. Water them once a week, after checking the topsoil, apply enough to keep soil moist, not wet. Reduce watering in the autumn and winter season. And in terms of feeding, apply fertilizer every six weeks to boost quality growth, but avoid any kind of root burn or yellowed foliage due to excess fertilizer salt. And encourage pruning by removing any dying or yellow leaves by using clean shears or scissors. This action is to reduce any kind of chance of fungal or bacterial diseases.
