A fern that refuses to look like a fern.
Staghorn Fern gets its name from its dramatic, branching fronds that resemble antlers. Its unusual growth habit makes it just as much a living sculpture as a houseplant, whether it's grown in a pot, hanging basket, or eventually mounted for display.
Unlike a typical terrestrial fern, Staghorn Fern is an epiphyte that naturally grows attached to trees. It appreciates bright indirect light, good airflow, and moisture without staying constantly soggy.
Light: Bright indirect light
Water: Water thoroughly when the growing medium begins to dry; avoid keeping constantly wet
Difficulty: Moderate
Growth: Epiphytic, arching
Pet info: Pet friendly
What you’ll receive
One Staghorn Fern (Platycerium bifurcatum) in the nursery-pot size selected. Frond shape, size, orientation, and fullness naturally vary between plants.
Please note: Staghorn Ferns develop rounded basal or shield fronds that can turn brown and papery as they mature. This is a normal part of the plant's growth and these fronds should not be removed. Decorative pots, mounts, and accessories are not included unless specifically stated. Minor cosmetic or shipping stress may occur during transit. See our Live Arrival Guarantee for details.
