    Transform your living space into a tropical paradise with the Crocodile Fern (Microsorum musifolium). This exotic fern is renowned for its unique foliage, which resembles the textured skin of a crocodile. Native to the warm, moist environments of tropical Australia and Southeast Asia, this fern brings a touch of the wild indoors, making it a perfect addition to your houseplant collection.

    • The Crocodile Fern features broad, leathery fronds with deep emerald veins, creating a striking and unusual visual texture. Typically reaches 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) in length when grown in a container indoors.
    • Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent scorching the fronds. Maintain indoor temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
    • Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ideal in a pot with good drainage. Thrives in high humidity environments. Use a pebble tray, group with other humidity-loving plants, or use a humidifier.
    • Use a fast-draining potting mix. Incorporate materials like coco coir and sphagnum moss for moisture retention, and add orchid bark or perlite to enhance drainage. Propagate by division in the spring. Separate the plant into smaller sections, ensuring each division has roots and foliage, then pot in a well-draining mix.
    • Despite its tropical origins, it adapts well to indoor conditions and is relatively easy to care for with proper humidity and light. Like many ferns, the Crocodile Fern can help improve indoor air quality by filtering out aerial impurities.

    Testimonials

    "Came in perfect condition--thank you!"

    Natalie

    "Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."

    Matthew

    "This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"

    Nathaniel

    "Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"

    Trisha

    "This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."
