The long, slender fronds of this decorative indoor fern have a pointed tip and a ruffled edge, which gives them their distinctive appeal. Lustrous, lush and structurally interesting, the rich green foliage will add a tropical feel to the home.

Please note that the plant comes in a 15cm nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.


  • Home care:
    Avoid handling the newly emerging fronds and water regularly in the growing season so that the compost remains moist but not waterlogged. Mist the leaves regularly with water - particularly in winter when the central heating is turned on. Maintain temperatures above 10°C in winter and repot in spring when the plant becomes root-bound.
