About
The Hardy Blue Fern, or Blue Star, has delicate pale-blue fronds above and weird hairy external roots below. It's an epiphyte -- it grows on the sides of other plants like a benign parasite, and its rhizomatic roots crawl out from below the surface to look for more places to expand.
A very large Fern!
Pot 26x21 diameter, plant 50cm high
Care
Light: Like all ferns, the Phlebodium prefers shade to sun.
Water: Though it is a fern, it needs to have adequate circulation so the soil has a chance to dry out. Think little and often as a watering policy.
Humidity: The blue star needs a humid space. You can either spritz it regularly or keep it in a bathroom.
