Setup, Compatibility & Care
When your plants arrive, allow them to acclimate to your indoor environment for 24 hours before repotting. Ferns prefer well-draining soil that stays lightly moist but never waterlogged.
- Watering: Touch the top of the soil; if it feels dry, it is time to water. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely, as this can cause fronds to crisp.
- Placement: Keep away from direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate leaves. North-facing windows or rooms with ambient, indirect light are best.
- Care: Use a gentle spray bottle to mist the foliage if you notice the tips turning brown, as this is usually a sign of low humidity.
- Feeding: During the active growing season, you can use a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once a month.
