A staghorn fern is an epiphytic plant, which means it grows on other plants or objects for support but is not parasitic. This type of fern is known for its shape that mimics deer or elk antlers. The fern has two distinct leaf forms—small, flat leaves (known as shield fronds) that cover and protect the root ball structure and take up water and nutrients and green, pronged antler fronds that emerge from this base and can reach up to 3 feet in length indoors (and larger in the wild). A staghorn fern grows best in warm, very humid conditions, bright, indirect, or dappled sunlight, in a base of organic soil, and it prefers temperatures between 50 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Staghorn Fern Care
- Water frequently and consistently but wait until the base dries out before watering.
- Place the staghorn fern in a humid room (such as a bathroom) or increase humidity around the plant.
- Fertilize monthly to promote healthy growth.
- Do not wipe away the white, dust-like material from the fronds of your fern. This material protects the fern from direct, harsh sunlight and drought.
