Giant Staghorn Fern - Platycerium superbum

Light
Bright but indirect light is best, especially in the warmer months when it could dehydrate your fern too much; in autumn and winter, it will benefit from an hour or so of sunlight per day.

Water
Staghorn ferns do not like to sit in soggy soil; they are naturally epiphytic, so their roots are used to being on the outside of a tree rather than in the ground. Make sure at least the top third dries out in between waters. It will bounce back much easier from under-watering than over-watering!

Humidity
Likes fairly moist air; will appreciate an occasional mist, and don't put it near a radiator.

Soil
A mix designed for orchids or anthuriums will serve your staghorn fern well; added bark will help its roots stay ventilated.

Food
Feed every six weeks with a houseplant fertiliser; don't overdo it on these delicate roots!

Temperature
Ideally likes temperatures of 10-26°C, but it can withstand temperatures as low as -1°C.

Pet-safe
Yes, but too much nibbling won't be good for pets, small humans or the plant!

Sprouts Top Tips
To make sure its roots don't sit soggy, hydrate them by soaking in lukewarm water for several minutes every week or so and then gently shaking them to empty any crevices.
