Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star' has cool blue-green fronds with a softly divided, slightly uneven outline. New and mature fronds can vary from gently lobed to more irregularly cut, so the outline changes naturally from frond to frond.

The plant grows from golden-brown creeping rhizomes that sit close to the substrate surface. Those rhizomes need air around the scaly growth points, while the finer roots below prefer steady moisture in a loose, well-drained mix.

Blue-Green Fronds on Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

  • Frond colour: Blue-green to glaucous green fronds with a soft matte surface.
  • Leaf shape: Divided, lobed or irregularly pinnate fronds that vary naturally as the plant develops.
  • Rhizomes: Golden-brown, scaly growth points creep across the substrate surface.
  • Fern detail: Round sori can appear on mature frond undersides as normal reproductive structures.
  • Container growth: Surface rhizomes gradually extend across the pot as new fronds develop.

How Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star' Grows in a Pot

Phlebodium aureum is an epiphytic fern in the Polypodiaceae family, native from the southeastern United States and the Caribbean through tropical America. Indoors, its creeping rhizomes should stay near the surface so the scaly growth points remain aerated.

A shallow pot gives the rhizome room to travel across the mix. Deep planting can trap moisture around the rhizome and lead to softness, browning or slow decline.

Rhizome-Focused Care for Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

  • Light: Bright filtered light keeps the fronds coloured and firm; harsh direct sun can scorch the soft blue-green surface.
  • Water: Keep the mix lightly and evenly moist, then let excess water drain fully from the pot.
  • Substrate: Use an airy fern or epiphyte-style mix so water reaches the roots and oxygen remains around the rhizome.
  • Pot choice: A wide, shallow pot gives the creeping rhizome room to spread across the surface.
  • Water quality: Soft or low-lime water is gentler on the fronds where tap water is very hard.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity reduces dry, crispy edges on the thin frond margins.
  • Repotting: Repot when the rhizome reaches the pot edge or the mix collapses and stays wet too long.

Leaf and Rhizome Issues on Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

  • Brown frond edges: Dry substrate, dry air or strong sun can crisp the thin frond margins.
  • Yellowing fronds: Wet, compact mix around the rhizome can stress the roots and older fronds first.
  • Soft rhizomes: Deep planting or stagnant moisture around the surface rhizome can cause rot.
  • Pests: Scale can settle along fronds and stems, especially on stressed indoor plants.
  • Sori confusion: Round dots on mature frond undersides are fern sori, not pests.

Safety for Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

Phlebodium aureum is considered non-toxic to cats, but chewing any houseplant can still irritate the stomach. Keep it away from pets that repeatedly nibble plants.

Botanical Background of Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

The species was first published by Linnaeus as Polypodium aureum in 1753 and later placed in Phlebodium by John Smith in 1841. The genus name Phlebodium is linked with veining, while the species epithet aureum means golden.

Great
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen itself is really good. It applies smoothly just as advertised “lotion”. I was pleased to see it didn’t leave a white cast. I apply makeup over my sunscreen often. This sunscreen worked perfectly with makeup. Like it said, it’s unscented and that was true as I didn’t detect a scent. My skin feels nice with this on. My only issue is that it didn’t come with a safety seal under the cap. Usually all products come with a seal to ensure it isn’t tampered with and that buyer gets the full amount of product. That was a bit upsetting but hopefully I didn’t actually get a used one.

I LOVE this sunscreen!! Super affordable and lightweight for your skin!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I love this sunscreen!! Love it so much I bought 3 bottles of it! Super lightweight and blends right into the skin, and I don’t feel not sticky! I got super excited and got this primarily because it’s lightweight, super affordable, SPF 50 for high protection, and it said there’s no alcohol or fragrance…heres the catch tho, there IS a slight sunscreen smell, but you only notice it when applying it and if you keeping smelling it on yourself up close during the day. Other than that, it’s truly fragrance free in the sense that you aren’t just standing there doing your thing, and keep getting HIT with the scent of sunscreen for hours, like other sunscreens! The scent is extremely light and pleasant when you go to smell it on yourself. Don’t EVER discontinue this please please please!!!!

It’s great! So light weight!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I have been testing this out for a month now. I love it. This does have avobenzone in it, and because of that, I do NOT put it around my eyes as avobenzone is a chemical sunscreen ingredient that typically tends to cause the of sensation of burning eyes! At least for me it does. I use an Australian sunscreen around my eyes that doesn’t have anything that irritates my eyes. So for the rest of my face, this stuff is great. It literally is so serum like sinks into your skin within five minutes or sooner. Now it’s not the most hydrating thing in the world so if you have a dry skin, you still wanna go in with a moisturizer before however, if you have oily skin, this is your girl right here. Skin like finish, not super matte and not dewy at all. I do not wear primer so I don’t know how it plays with that. Works great under my makeup and has never caused pilling. Quick, easy, simple ingredients, definitely sensitive skin friendly, and no fragrance at an affordable cost-effective price! Now if only banana boat decided to go cruelty free😭 9/10 bc not CF 💔

Great sensitive skin sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
Love this! I have sensitive skin. this did not sting my eyes, or burn my cheeks. Left no white cast. I'm not noticing any scent. It just feels like bare skin, it's not heavy, drying, oily or sticky. No pilling. Went on smooth, not streaky, looks like skin once dried down, not patchy. I hope they keep this in stock forever!
