Fern | Kangaroo Paw

Botanical name: Microsorum pustulatum

Common name: Kangaroo paw fern

Kingdom: Plantae

Family: Polypodiaceae

Genus: Microsorum

Origin: Australia 

Light: Moderate to bright indirect light 

Water: Water: Ferns despise drying out. Only allow the top 1/4 inch of the top soil to dry. Water little, but frequent around every 4 to 5 days to top up moisture levels. Doing a top up watering technique you should not have the water coming through the bottom or this can lead to overwatering. However if you have let the fern dry out around 1/2 then do a thorough watering. It is a bit risky to let then dry out too much. Humidifiers help as well as grouping plants to raise the humidity in immediate area.

Fertilizer: With active growth (even in winter) we recommend using a fertilizer based for foliage plants like Dynagro foliage pro, Gaia green 444 or fish fertilizer.
