Platycerium Bifurcatum
Platycerium Bifurcatum, better known as the Staghorn Fern, is one of the most unique plants in our collection and a plant we use all the time in our mounted staghorn workshops! With antler-like fronds, this epiphytic fern brings a bit of the wild indoors with its shimmery, grey-green foliage.
Native to the rainforests of Australia and Southeast Asia, it naturally grows on tree trunks, soaking up moisture and nutrients from the air and fallen debris. It doesn’t actually need soil, which helps make it a great candidate for mounting on wood, but it's also just as happy in a well-draining mix. It loves humidity and bright, indirect light, and prefers a good soak when the fronds start to feel dry.
