# Anyone have any tips on keeping a rabbits foot fern lush and thick?…

_Posted by Zan~ Anxious Planter on 2023-07-29_

Anyone have any tips on keeping a rabbits foot fern lush and thick? After caring for mine for a bit I’ve noticed tons of new growth but at the cost of it’s not very thick, almost like it’s thinning out. He seems very healthy other then that every now and then we do loose a few stalks of leaves but soon to be quickly replaced by new fronds.

I’ve been looking forward to this group because I ‘ve had mixed luck with ferns—and I ‘ve never had this one. But I have noticed that finding whatever the right light (chosen by each fern) along with fertilizer has helped mine the most. At least the ones I have that look healthy.
