Know before you buy
This fern prefers bright, indirect light. Placing it near a window with a sheer curtain or in a spot that receives filtered sunlight will help it maintain its vibrant color and clumping growth habit.
No, this plant is not considered pet-safe. It is best to keep it in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets.
The plant requires moderate watering. Aim to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and ensure the pot has proper drainage to prevent root rot.
The Silver Lace Fern prefers medium humidity levels. If your home is particularly dry, you can maintain its health by misting the leaves occasionally or placing it near a humidifier.
Your fern will arrive rooted in a plastic nursery pot, individually wrapped in recycled craft paper to ensure it stays secure during transit. It is ready to be placed in your preferred decorative planter upon arrival.
