Staghorn Fern

Native to primarily Africa, Australia and Southeast Asia. Platycerium thrives in bright indirect light. Place them next to the brightest window in the house. Watering care varies per season. 

• A good rule of thumb is to water once per week in dry, hot times of year, and once every two to three weeks during cooler months. Start with this schedule, and adjust as necessary depending on your space.
• Staghorn ferns absorb water through their fronds, as well as their roots. This means that they respond well to misting and appreciate humid spaces.
• If the antler fronds begin to brown or blacken at the base, this is a sign of over-watering. Reduce watering to once monthly until plant shows sign of recovery
• If the antler fronds begin to brown at the tips or wilt, this is a sign of under-watering. Increase watering as needed.
