Fern

Ferns are elegant, lush, and mostly shade-loving plants that add a touch of greenery both indoors and outdoors. They’ve been around for millions of years and are known for their feathery, delicate fronds and air-purifying qualities.

Fern Plant Care Tips:

*1. Light:

Ferns love indirect, filtered light.Avoid harsh direct sun as it can scorch the fronds.Ideal for spots with dappled light or partial shade.

*2. Watering:

Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy.Most ferns hate drying out—water when the top inch of soil feels dry.In dry indoor environments, mist the leaves regularly or use a humidity tray.

*3. Humidity:

High humidity is a must—ferns thrive in 50%+ humidity.Bathrooms and kitchens are great indoor spots.For dry areas, use a humidifier or pebble tray.

*4. Soil:

Use a light, well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter.You can mix peat moss, coco peat, and perlite for a good fern soil.

*5. Fertilizing:

Feed monthly during the growing season (spring to early fall) with diluted liquid fertilizer (half strength).Avoid over-fertilizing—too much can burn the roots and fronds.

*6. Pruning & Grooming:

Trim brown or dead fronds regularly to encourage healthy growth.Gently wipe or mist to keep leaves dust-free if indoors.

*7. Potting & Repotting:

Repot every 1–2 years, especially when roots outgrow the pot.

Choose pots with drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
