MAIDENHAIR FERN PLANT CARE

Maidenhair ferns, known for their delicate, lacy foliage, require specific care to thrive indoors. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you care for your Maidenhair fern:

Sunlight

  • Indirect Light: Maidenhair ferns prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate lower light conditions, but too little light may result in leggy growth.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Direct sunlight can scorch the delicate fronds, so it's best to provide filtered or indirect light.

Watering

  • Consistent Moisture: Maidenhair ferns require consistently moist soil. Water them thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry to the touch, but do not let the soil dry out completely.
  • Use Room Temperature Water: Use room temperature water to avoid shocking the plant.

Humidity

  • High Humidity: Maidenhair ferns thrive in high humidity environments. Mist the foliage regularly, place a tray filled with pebbles and water beneath the pot to increase humidity, or use a humidifier.

Temperature

  • Temperature: Maidenhair ferns prefer temperatures between 15-21°C. They are sensitive to temperature fluctuations and drafts.
