- Place your Elkhorn Fern in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, so filtered light is ideal. Elkhorn Fern thrives in temperatures ranging from 60°F to 75°F (15.5°C to 24°C). Protect the plant from frost and cold drafts, bringing it indoors if nighttime temperatures drop below 50°F (10°C).
- Water the fern sparingly, allowing the soil to partially dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot. In a pot, water every 9 days approximately, adjusting based on your environment. Maintain high humidity levels, ideally between 60% and 80%. Regular misting or placing a tray of water near the plant can help increase humidity. Avoid placing the plant near heating or cooling vents as they can dry out the air around it.
- Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a combination of orchid bark, peat moss, and perlite. Ensure the soil remains slightly acidic, with a pH level between 5.5 and 6.5. One of the best ways to showcase the Elkhorn Fern is by mounting it on a wooden board. Mix peat moss and sphagnum moss, place it on the board, and tie the fern using garden ties or stockings. Mist the plant regularly to keep the moss moist.
- The Elkhorn Fern’s unique fronds and lush foliage make it a visually striking plant, perfect for enhancing the aesthetic of any space. Like many ferns, the Elkhorn Fern helps purify the air, making your environment healthier.
- With the right care, this fern is relatively low maintenance, requiring minimal watering and thriving in indirect light. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor growing, the Elkhorn Fern can be displayed in various ways, including mounted on boards or potted in containers.

Testimonials
Natalie"Came in perfect condition--thank you!"
Matthew"Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."
Nathaniel"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!"
Trisha"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!"
R"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."
