Phlebodium Aureum Blue Star | 12cm Pot

Unusual fern with long finger-like fronds. Position: bright, indirect light Soil: good potting compost Rate of growth: average Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 30cm (+ or – 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 14cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot An interesting and unusual fern with long finger-like fronds in a subtle blue/green shade growing on many long upright stems. This fern naturally grows in tropical rainforests with high humidity levels, so place this in your steamy bathroom or kitchen and it should be very happy. It likes a bright spot, out of any direct sunlight, but will tolerate lower light levels making it an easy plant to look after. Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery pot). They do however make excellent potted plants, and if you wish to pot yours up, we do have a wide range of pots on our website to choose from. Home care: Keep the compost moist (but not waterlogged) at all times, but this can be cut back a little in winter. If you can’t place it in a humid atmosphere like your bathroom you can still grow this plant, just mist the leaves regularly with water and/or place the pot on a tray of damp pebbles.
