It makes an excellent terrarium plant and thrives in greenhouse cabinets, cloches, or naturally humid rooms. If the leaf edges begin looking crispy, your fern is asking for a little more moisture in the air. Remember: no humidifiers required—grouping plants together can often create a more comfortable microclimate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e📦 Please note that the photos shown are representative of the plants available and not the exact plant you will receive.
