This unique and fascinating houseplant makes a magnificent hanging or wall-mounted specimen for a bright spot out of direct sunlight.

Growing on the branches of trees in the wild, common staghorn fern is best admired at eye level to appreciate it in all its spectacular glory!

Grow Platycerium bifurcatum in a bright spot out of direct sunlight. Water by dunking in water for 10-15 minutes (less in winter), then allowing to drain. Let the soil dry out between watering. Staghorn fern enjoys a high humidity environment so is ideal for bathrooms or kitchens, or else mist regularly.
