Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your mounted staghorn fern care is surprisingly simple, allowing you to enjoy its unique beauty with minimal effort. Consistent hydration is key to the health of your Staghorn Fern. Keep the moss ball and soil consistently slightly moist, ensuring the plant receives adequate water without becoming waterlogged.

You can water by soaking the entire moss ball in water for 10-20 minutes until thoroughly saturated, then allowing it to drain completely before re-hanging.

This impressive staghorn fern indoor plant thrives in bright, filtered sunlight or bright indirect light. Position it near a window where it can receive plenty of light but is shielded from direct, harsh sun, especially during the hottest parts of the day. While it enjoys the outdoors, if placing it outside, ensure it’s in a shaded area away from direct scorching sun; gentle morning sun is usually well-tolerated. Protect it from frost and extreme temperatures to prevent damage. For soil, the Kokedama moss ball provides an ideal environment, but ensuring good air circulation around the plant is also beneficial. Fertilize sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted liquid fertilizer, applying it to the moss ball and soil according to the fertilizer instructions for best results. Watch for brown frond tips, which can indicate insufficient humidity, and consider misting or placing it near a humidifier.
