Fall in love with our selection of Platycerium, the must-have 'Staghorn ferns' or 'Elkhorn Ferns'! With their spectacular, deeply divided fronds, these quirky epiphytic ferns add a unique touch to your indoor space. The iconic Platycerium bifurcatum recognisable for its long, forked, silver-green fronds, looks stunning when hung up or mounted on a wooden shelf. Other varieties like the Platycerium alcicorne with its elongated and forked fronds, the Platycerium grande with its broad, drooping fronds, or the Platycerium veitchii covered in a silvery fuzz, are equally impressive but rarer.
Native to the tropical forests of Asia and Australia, these ferns from the Polypodiaceae family thrive in soft light and constant humidity. Plant them in a well-draining substrate, in pots or baskets, or grow them epiphytically on bark, and water regularly without letting water stagnate. Maintain a temperature between 10 and 25°C for them to flourish fully.
