Care Instructions:

• Light Conditions☀️
  Ferns thrive in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight, especially the intense midday sun, can burn the leaves, causing them to turn brown and potentially damaging the plant.
  Conservatories, kitchens, and bathrooms can be good locations due to their brighter light and potentially higher humidity.
  You might need to rotate the plant or provide some shade during the hottest parts of the day.
  
• Watering💧
  Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Ferns are water lovers and require regular watering. The soil should stay evenly moist but never waterlogged. Using rainwater or filtered water is recommended.
  Reduce watering significantly in the cooler months as the plant's growth slows.
  Allow any excess water to drain away.
  
• Humidity💦
  Ferns thrive in high humidity.
  Conservatories, kitchens, and bathrooms can be good locations due to their potential higher humidity.
  If you need to increase your humidity levels you can use a humidifier or you could consider regularly misting your plant if the indoor air is dry.
  You can also place your plant on a tray of pebbles and water to increase the humidity levels.
  
• Temperature🌡️
  Ferns plants prefer average household temperatures between 15-24°C. They can cope with temperatures as low as 5°C for short periods.
  Avoid cold draughts, air conditioners or heaters as this plant is sensitive to temperature fluctuations.
  
• Fertilising🌱
  Fertilise every two weeks during the growing season (March to September) with a balanced liquid feed. Cut back on fertiliser to once a month during the winter.
  
• Additional Care➕
  Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust and improve photosynthesis.
  Repot every 2-3 years, or when root bound, in well-draining soil to accommodate growth and refresh nutrients. Repotting is best done in the spring, as the plant can then start the growing season with fresh soil and nutrients.
  Remove any dead, yellowing, or damaged leaves with clean tools to maintain a tidy appearance and encourage healthier growth.
