Lacy pine fern 'Knightii'

Lacy pine fern is a striking epiphytic or terrestrial fern with long, arching, leathery fronds. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. This fern prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil with high organic content. Water it regularly, ensuring the soil never dries out completely, but avoid waterlogging. It enjoys high humidity, making it ideal for terrariums or bathrooms. If grown indoors, occasional misting helps maintain moisture levels. Lacy pine fern thrives in warm temperatures (above 60°F/16°C) and is sensitive to frost. It benefits from occasional feeding with a diluted liquid fertilizer during the growing season. Prune dead or damaged fronds to keep the plant looking fresh. This fern is relatively low-maintenance, making it a great choice for tropical-themed gardens or indoor collections needing a lush, exotic touch.
