Description: This Australian fern grows long indented leaves with a dark green color and glossy shine. Versatile and adaptable, Kangaroo ferns are suitable for any indoor environment. Care is similar to most other ferns, preferring indirect light and moisture.
- Care Ferns tend to like moist, well-drained soil and high humidity to thrive. Add some coarse sand or perlite to help improve drainage in your potting mixes. Cold drafts can cause their fronds to turn brown on the edges and tips. Bright filtered light is best.
