This fern, like most others, likes bright indirect light (indirect is important! Don't put her in the sun) and moist soil. She has unique, three fingered sagey green leaves that sport a rich green border. She will also benefit from some humidity and/or misting.

Origin: Native to tropical regions of Asia, prized for my delicate, silver-striped fronds.

Light: Provide bright, indirect light. I thrive in filtered sunlight or partial shade, but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch my leaves.

Humidity: I appreciate moderate to high humidity levels. Mist my leaves regularly or place me near a humidifier to maintain humidity, especially indoors during dry seasons.

Watering: Keep my soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water me when the top inch of soil feels dry, and ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Soil: Plant me in well-draining, peat-based potting mix. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and standard potting soil works well to provide good drainage and moisture retention.

Fertilization: Feed me with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in fall and winter.

Pests/Diseases: Watch out for pests like aphids, scale, and mealybugs. Treat any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
