How to Care for Staghorn Fern Plants
Staghorn Fern Plants grow best in medium to low indirect light. The Staghorn Fern plant gets its name from the fact that the center of the plant resembles a deer's antlers. It is also occasionally called an Elkhorn Fern. Their appearance can bring to mind a seaweed plant growing on dry land. Staghorn Fern Plants are an epiphytic fern, which means in the wild it typically grows on other things, like tree trunks or buildings. When you buy it as a houseplant, it will be planted in a container, but it can be affixed to planks and hung on a wall much like bird's nest ferns.
