Scientific Name: Nephrolepis obliterata 'Shiva'
Synonyms: Kimberley Queen Fern, Australian Sword fern
- Attractive sword-like foliage
- Tough Fern variety
- Upright growth habit
- Can be hung to create a gorgeous feature
- Humidity lover
The Green Fern is a variety of easy-care and somewhat hardy Sword Fern family. This fantastic variety has beautifully deep green fronds that gently arch, lending to a full and delicate look.
Nephrolepis in general is a hardy fern variety that can handle much brighter light than many other fern varieties. Keeping this delicate beauty thriving is best done by maintaining warm conditions with the highest possible humidity, making it the perfect choice for a brightly lit bathroom or kitchen.
The Green Fern has a more compact, upright growth habit compared to its much larger relative, the Boston Fern, making it a lovely addition to spaces that are brightly lit but limited in width. You can pair this lush fern with a stylish planter on a tabletop or shelf, where it can be admired as a statement specimen, or cluster it with other houseplants as an accent piece. Like the Boston Fern, this variety also does well as a graceful hanging houseplant.
To keep your easy-care fern full and lush, be sure to plant it in an organic-rich potting medium and keep the soil evenly moist. Spritzing your fern daily as well as placing it on a pebble tray will help raise the humidity around the plant, preventing dry edges on the fronds. Be sure to place it in a bright, filtered spot away from direct sunlight.
Please note: Nephrolepis is non-toxic to pets and humans.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these instructions to keep your Green Fern houseplant healthy and happy.
Light: Bright filtered light is best.
Water: Water once the surface of the soil is dry to the touch, however, avoid complete drying out.
Humidity: Medium to high humidity is ideal.
Fertiliser: Use a well-balanced organic fertiliser or a fertiliser specially formulated for ferns every two weeks during active growth of spring through summer.
