Characteristics

The Platycerium bifurcatum, also known as a Staghorn Fern, is a distinctive epiphytic species that produces leathery, forked fronds resembling the horns of a stag and are covered in a velvety covering of white hairs.

How to Care for Staghorn Ferns

  • Light: Bright indirect light. Direct light will burn this plant.
  • Water Preferences: This epiphytic plant absorbs water as readily through the leaves as it does the roots and loves to be misted frequently. Keep soil evenly moist. To water your Staghorn fern thoroughly, submerge it in water.
  • Special Care/Notes: The perfect balance of water for this plant might be tricky to find, as it is sensitive to over and underwatering. Once the shield front emerges from the base of the plant, do not, under any circumstances remove it. Even if it’s brown, let another one grow back before removing the old one. Gorgeous plant for the bathroom as it loves moisture!

"This is a beautiful garden store in Ft. Collins, Colo. This isn't a discount store but the quality of their plants and merchandise are good quality. We are a cactus/succulent family and we found some very healthy plants, some different than we have found previously. Large facility broken up into manageable rooms for browsing. The employees are there if you need them and the young man at the register was pleasant, knowledgeable and accommodating. If you enjoy spending time at a nursery/garden store there is no reason not to enjoy the Bath Garden Center."
