🌿 Staghorn Fern – 4” Pot

🌼 Meaning:
Symbolizing uniqueness, strength, and natural artistry, the Staghorn Fern (Platycerium bifurcatum) is a true statement piece. Its sculptural, antler-like fronds bring an artistic, woodland touch to your home or garden — blending elegance with a sense of the wild. 🤍🌿

🌱 Growth & Appearance:
Unlike most ferns, the Staghorn grows epiphytically — meaning it naturally attaches to trees or wood surfaces instead of growing in soil. Its layered fronds create a living work of art that looks beautiful in hanging baskets, mounted wall displays, or tabletop planters. 🪴✨

☀️ Where It Grows Best:
Thrives in bright, indirect light and humid conditions, making it perfect for porches, patios, bathrooms, or shaded outdoor spaces. In South Georgia, it grows beautifully outdoors in filtered light or indoors near a bright window. 🌤️🏡

🪴 Care Instructions:

• Light: Bright, indirect sunlight — avoid direct afternoon rays 🌤️

• Water: Soak or deeply water when fronds start to soften or the base feels dry (about every 7–10 days) 💧

• Humidity: Loves humidity — mist weekly or place near a humidifier 🌫️

• Fertilizer: Feed monthly with diluted balanced fertilizer during spring and summer 🌸

• Mounting: Can be grown in a pot, hanging basket, or mounted on driftwood or a board for a natural display 🌿

🌿 Type:
The Staghorn Fern is an evergreen tropical epiphyte, meaning it stays lush and green year-round when kept warm and moist. In Zones 9–11, it can grow outdoors year-round; in cooler areas, bring it inside during cold snaps. 🌱❄️

🌺 Complimentary Plant Material:
Pairs beautifully with other shade-loving plants like bird’s nest fern, pothos, philodendron, bromeliads, and orchids. Combine with moss or driftwood accents for a natural, woodland look. 🌿🪵

💧 Display & Care Tips:

• For hanging: Soak or hose down the root base until fully moist, then let drip dry 🪴💦

• For mounting: Wrap the root ball in sphagnum moss before securing to wood 🌿

• Indoors: Provide humidity and good air circulation 🌫️

• Trim dead fronds as needed to keep it tidy ✂️
