Growing Tips
Green Flame Fern is a stunning cultivar of the classic Boston Fern with unique ruffled fronds and vibrant lime-green new growth. It's an excellent air-purifying plant that removes formaldehyde and xylene from indoor air. Place in bathrooms or kitchens where natural humidity keeps fronds lush and vibrant. Mist regularly if grown in drier rooms, or use a pebble tray to increase humidity. Brown leaf tips indicate low humidity or inconsistent watering. This fern loves consistent moisture but ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
