Our Favorite Plants: No. 6


The Staghorn Fern is a majestic, fascinating plant. Like orchids, the Staghorn does not require soil to grow. This variety resembles antlers, and is mounted with its own foliage draped around its base. With the right conditions, they are relatively easy to care for. Water either through soaking the base in a bucket or sink of water, or in center of fern once a week. Allow the fern to dry out between waterings. The Staghorn prefers some humidity and should be misted around the plant frequently. 

Care: Indirect, Bright Light • Moderate Water • Warm indoor temperature
