Hi! My Mt Emei bamboo fern (purchased and potted about a month ago) has crispy leaves. Do you think this is low humidity? It’s on a pebble tray next to many plants but under a grow light and humidity hovers around 40%. I could move it to the bathroom but i would only get about 60 fc light there. Thoughts?
Help! My fern is looking sad and losing a lot of leaves. How can I help it? Disclosure: I live in a very cold and snowy mountain town with little daylight and not much humidity.
My newest love. 💚
Hey all! Can anyone advise on what’s happened to my fern? I’ve followed the watering schedule created my planta, moved him into the bathroom to get more humidity and place him by a window for some light. Any ideas? Thank you!
Just gave this big lady her winter haircut and she’s still huge. I went through and used my fingers to snap off any old pieces ready to go. This is her second winter indoors in my large east facing window. In the summer she goes out on the porch (which takes two people now with this 55”pot) 🙈😂 lots of healthy new growth even into the winter! I do my best not to use tap water though because I do notice it snaps the vitality of the plant.
My maidenhair fern has this and I have no idea what it is! It’s different than the rest of the fronds and even though ferns don’t flower that’s where my mind went. If any of you have insight I’d appreciate it be sure I’m super curious!
Here is my Boston Fern. When I got it was huge and just repotted. It has grown so fast and all I’ve been doing is watering it once a week. I think it needs to be repotted again but not sure? What do you think?
My new bird’s nest fern❤️
My asparagus fern is climbing like crazy and has reached the top of the window!
baby fronds on my staghorn :)
Help! My peacock moss was so beautiful when I bought it. I placed it in a semi-sunny room and watered often and made sure the soil was never dry. It’s leaves keep falling and turning yellow, they’re so dry. I moved it into the bathroom with no sun, will this help?
I am looking for a good plant mister that doesn’t get water all over everything along with the plants and doesn’t drip. Any suggestions?
My asparagus fern is loving life and growing these super long fronds (3 ft). This one is now trellising itself on the string of my blinds 😆
Hey all! My fern has had a rough life. He was given to me in pretty rough shape and at that time I didn’t really know or care that much about my plants… until this past year! He has definitely been chronically underwatered, just getting enough to survive until about 9 months ago. Even then, he hasn’t really grown at all and just now started getting a few new leaves. Anyone have any idea how long it might take for this guy to thrive??
hi everyone! this is my birds nest fern that ive had for about 8 months, and I moved from San Antonio to a smaller town in northeast Texas. During the move, the fronds starting wilting like spinach and i got very worried! i tried not to freak out and over or under water it, or give it too much or too little sun in hopes of "fixing it fast". so i just let it do its thing and where it wilted eventually turned brittle and brown. does anyone know why, and what i can do to help it? should i just trim those pieces off or leave them alone? thank you!!
progress of my cotton candy fern 😊
Good morning everyone, I’m about to purchase one of my dream ferns, the Staghorn Fern. I’ve been doing research on how to take care of it but I would really appreciate your tips on this plant. Thank you and have a good day.
Rabbits foot fern is looking tragic, any ideas on how I can improve their wellbeing?
I recently got this Cretan brake fern from a rescue box! I’m inspired to create a terrarium for it (since the invention of the terrarium was what first enabled species of ferns to be transported overseas by botanists). Has anyone created one for their ferns before? Any suggestions for what to put in with it? (Other plants, decorative elements etc) Any suggestions of where to buy interesting terrarium containers? (I’m going to go with something geometric rather than a jar or bottle I think)
HELP! i just went to water my asparagus fern but there’s mould(?) in the soil!?! i dont know what to do i’ve never run into this before :/ it’s also watering day so is it possible i’ve been over watering it???????
