Bright indirect sunlight.

Keep soil moist.

Enjoys humidity. Spritz occasionally or place in high humid enviroment such as your bathroom!

Keep this plant between temperatures of 68°F-78°F indoors with plenty of humidity. They can survive a temps in the 40's and 50's but not for long.

Outside: Keep them in full shade on a patio out of direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn where nights are above 55°F

Apply a balanced, liquid fertilizer especially formulated for indoor plants twice a year in the spring and summer.

Repot once the roots are beginning to get crowded and growing through the drainage holes. They prefer to be a little crowded in their pot. 

Repot in the spring, using a 2 inches bigger pot to give the roots room to spread.

Place a piece of screening at the bottom of the container over the drainage hole to secure the soil and allow it to drain. Use a rich, well-draining indoor potting mix amended with 25% compost and to help with fertility. 

Water your plant in the old pot before transferring over and let them sit an hour.

Add soil to the bottom to elevate the root ball. Lift the plant and release the roots against the existing planter. Use a clean knife or garden trowel to wedge between the pot and the soil to loosen. 

Inspect the root ball. Notice if there are any dead or rotting roots and trim off with sterile pruners. If the plant is rootbound, cut through the roots to alleviate continued encircling. 

Ensure the plant is sitting about 1 inch below the edge of the pot to avoid water spillage. Add more soil and backfill around the sides by tamping down. Fill up to the soil line but not over. 

Water thoroughly, leaving the soil damp but not soggy. If settling occurs, add more soil.   

Water well to dampen the soil and let it drain.

Trim off any browning, yellowing, or discolored leaves. Cut the stem all the way back to the base. Avoid trimming the fern's top, if possible, except for the dead, damaged, or diseased parts. Instead, shape them up by cutting the side leaves from the base. Bravo! Now your fern looks like they just had a face-lift!

To collect and germinate spores from an existing fern plant, place a paper bag around a frond and secure it gently to the base. Adding a small stake as support for the frond and the bag will ensure that the delicate frond doesn’t break under the additional weight. After 10 to 12 days, remove the paper bag. You will find that the inside of the bag is coated in brown dust—i.e., the spores of the fern. 

Shake out the spores on top of moistened sphagnum moss or paper towel on a plate, and cover with a lid. Ensure that the sphagnum moss and potting medium remain consistently moist as the spores germinate.
