Proper and consistent moisture is probably the most challenging, it\'s best to plant it in a plastic pot with drainage holes, or keep it in the plastic pot that it came in, and place this in a more attractive outer cachepot. Clay pots alone aren\'t recommended. They allow the soil to dry out quickly When the soil dries out, the fronds shrivel up and die extremely fast. This is not a plant you can be passive about watering. It will not do well if you let the roots sit in puddled water. The soil needs to be kept constantly moist, but not soggy.

GROOMING: Ferns need grooming periodically to help them maintain health and vigor. This simply means removing dead fronds or matings of dropped leaflets. This is particularly important in the fluffy types that may be quite compact. Keep the pot clean. Wash it occasionally with warm water and a soft brush.FERTILIZER: Feed your Maidenhair Fern every 2 weeks during the late fall and early spring (Sept-March) with a liquid fertilizer at 1/2 the recommended strength. These plants love Fish Emulsion.
MISCELLANEOUS: Aphids, Mealy Bugs, and scale are attracted to these ferns.
Carefully rinse the entire plant in soapy water to treat an infestation. Carefully remove any dead or dying fronds; they will drain the plant’s energy and slow down growth. The Maidenhair Fern is a non- poisonous plant safe for cats and kids.
