Oooh My Goodness Gracious Me! Your tip about watering, keeping the plants in the drier side and see how they handle it, is THE tip I would have needed to hear when I tried house plants again. (I had failed many, many times prior to this.) 💮
Love those wider leafy ferns, especially the Bird’s nest varieties. I haven’t had good luck with the tiny leafed (Boston) types, they give me entirely too much non-quality time with my broom (in other words, sweeping, not riding). 🧹 Thanks for another interesting “Fern Friday.”
🌱🌴🌿🌾🌿Awwwwwwwesome! Fern. Aquanatic is very special, a new one to me. That reminded me to water my fern! I like that tip to use a bowl to catch the water and let it drink until it has absorbed as much ad it needs. That makes it easy!🌿
Have realized after 40+years in horticulture that interior-speaking, I subconsciously gravitate toward epiphytes; maybe it was that week in a canoe in the Okefenokee Swamp studying carnivorous plants... Staghorns are at the top of my list, but my house isn't ideal for any of them. I'm working on it... Can ferns be happy under supplemental grow lights? Watching your videos has me thinking of potential solutions re: temp & humidity as well. For resolving the big three, light would be easiest to fix. You are now my new "plant person"; I've been through a few and I've just discovered you, but I'm optimistic, lol. Can't wait to check out your exterior expertise!
Thanks for sharing .You got me interested in ferns I have a rabbit foots fern now it doing good .Now I'm going to try my hand with these one with your advice.Thank you.
Lol! loved this video, but I don't have any ferns because they don't like the growing conditions that I have in my home, and I know they would not like the winters that I live in, So I will just admire them from the UA-camr's that grow them, actually the one fern that I have is a heart fern and that will be the only fern that I own, it is enough work for me, Thanks for an awesome video I did love watching it. See you in the next video, bye for now.
Love 💕 your fern Friday!! During our storm yesterday a piece of bark came off my oak with these ferns growing from it. Not sure what to do.... suggestions? Cool ferns!
Thanks for the name whatever it’s called I have had one for over 10 years.They are very hardy they can take direct sun ☀️ drinks lots of water for me I am in Florida never really given it any special care the foliage is very good in floral arrangements.
I can see why that would be classed as Microsorum. Java Fern (M. pteropus) grows from fully aquatic to epiphytic (fully emersed) and the foliage is different between the terrestrial and aquatic environment. The terrestrial form foliage has quite a bit of similarity. Honestly, it looks identical to the plant that I used to know as 'Windelov' Java Fern or Lace Java Fern. What does the rhizome look like? Is it narrow and hairy like Java Fern?
Extremely similar to the lace javas! I have had my regular grow up my drift wood and out of the water before and those looked really neat. Would like to see my Lace Javas do the same!
No, I decided it would be too difficult to keep it hydrated in the winter when it's indoors. It's done well though, had some light cold damage in the fall but has recoved nicely from it.
Pests... you need to talk about potential pests. Found scale on my staghorn. Yuck. Need to talk about how to get rid of pest without harming the plants as well.

Hi Jeff! That is a beautiful fern! I like the uniqueness of it. TFS!
Thank you Sandy! It is quite unique!
Yay! Fern Friday is back! I have a list of plants I want: the elkhorn and the staghorn are both on it. This is a beautiful fern!
Those are all awesome ferns!
My 1st thought.... "Your Fern would make a nice Ceasar Salad" ha
Lol!
I loooooove fern Friday 😁💕
Thanks Amanda! Me too! ... I'm running out of ferns though. 🙄

It just helps me know the soil has fully saturated so they don't get underwatered.
That’s lovely
All ferns are beautiful
Yes they are!
Beautiful can't wait to see it grow. I'm very glad you found it the one I had seen was growing in a coconut fiber hanging basket and was beautiful.
So you think this is the one you had sent the snap of?
@@TropicalPlantParty it's young but I think there is a good possibility!
Also have you ever seen a crocodile fern? There was one on orchid adventures yesterday I fell in love.

Oh, this is a pretty one! Initially thought it was a staghorn fern... *insert embarrassed face* Hope you have a nice weekend, too!
Haha! No reason for embarrassment, it looks kind of like a shiny stag. 😊
Thanks for sharing .You got me interested in ferns I have a rabbit foots fern now it doing good .Now I'm going to try my hand with these one with your advice.Thank you.
no problem! It has been a very simple and easy plant for me.
I was thinking that looked like a Lace java fern I used to keep in my aquarium, very pretty!
Lace javas are spectacular!
That’s a beauty!
Sure is! Thank you!
Nice!
Love these ferns. I bought one the other day.
I'm really enjoying it!

Started my container gardens on the 15th and I have kale, spinach, and lettuce all sprouted already 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Love 💕 your fern Friday!! During our storm yesterday a piece of bark came off my oak with these ferns growing from it. Not sure what to do.... suggestions? Cool ferns!
To save the ferns? If they are still attached to the bark could put some white through them and hang them as mounted plants?
love it! 💕 I want one

Don’t know if you’re still active because I think I have the same thing, is this on soil or mix of peat, moss, bark and stuff?
Thanks for the video. May I request some footage of your pets? 😻
Lol! Everyone will be in tomorrow's vlog. ... except the parrots, dont think they made it in this week.
Did you end up moving it to the coconut basket?? curious to see how its grown!
No, I decided it would be too difficult to keep it hydrated in the winter when it's indoors. It's done well though, had some light cold damage in the fall but has recoved nicely from it.
I have a very big one of those but did not know it's name or it's care requirements
I'm excited for this one to get nice and big!
It’s a bird’s nest fern “ Leslie”
Pests... you need to talk about potential pests. Found scale on my staghorn. Yuck. Need to talk about how to get rid of pest without harming the plants as well.
I know, I forgot, my bad! Sorry! 😊
Asplenium antiquum 'Osaka'
Thank you!
Mine is getting brown spots? Any advice
Is the air dry?
7:16 I got one of those today! I'd also love to know what it's called.
The Sill has one identical and just says "Birds Nest Fern". Mine says "Beautiful Home Decor" 🤪
Why dont you mount it? I did my staghorn😊
This isn't a staghorn. I have this same one and mounted it but it really didn't do well so I put it back in a pit and it's recovering now.
Your computer is fixed
Well not really, but I got it to work with headphones so I'm able to edit in small burst... I hate wearing headphones!
