{"product_id":"hanging-staghorn-ferns-1","title":"Hanging Staghorn Ferns","description":"\u003cp\u003eStaghorn ferns are an impressive part of the epiphytic fern group, native primarily to Africa, Australia, and Southeast Asia. Their nickname comes from the large, antler-shaped fronds that shoot out from the center of the plant. Their leaves begin as a soft green and then become papery brown as they age. \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpores develop on the undersides of the fronds — they look like brown fuzz.

Western light is fine, but only in short bursts — this kind of light tends to be hot and harsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWATER\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStaghorns love a humid environment, so a bathroom with a bright window would be the best place for these plants. If you have no such bathroom, the watering process for the Staghorn is a mix of misting and soaking. Staghorn ferns should be watered when the upright plants look slightly wilted, and we recommend w\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eatering the plant's potting material only, with a long narrow-tipped watering can. A slow trickle will allow everything to become fully saturated. You'll want to avoid getting the fronds unnecessarily wet - that can cause mold. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eGROWTH HABITS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA mature Staghorn fern\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ecan be as big as 3 feet across.
