Platycerium veitchii is an impressive, large Australian Staghorn fern displaying narrow, silvery green, antler fronds. Great for hanging baskets or slab mounting.
Staghorn ferns grow best in a well-drained, moist, long fiber sphagnum moss. Allow to dry slightly between waterings. This fern is winter dormant so reduce water but maintain humidity. Feed with a dilute fertilize monthly during active growth from May to September. Protect from frost!
