Staghorn Ferns are epiphytes, meaning they grow on other plants in their natural environments. These ferns do well in bright indirect or diffused light. Too much light could burn these plants. East and Western exposure is ideal. Can dry out slightly between waterings.
We strive to provide accurate plant care information. For specific care needs or questions, please speak to a member of our greenhouse team. Please remember that our care instructions are guidelines only.
