PLANT CARE GUIDE

Placement

Placement

Place your Blue Star Fern near a window that gets morning or late afternoon sun or in a room that gets a medium amount of natural light. Bright, sunny, or overly warm windows should be avoided as direct sunlight will make the plant lose it's leaves or turn the leaves yellow. Rotate the plant occasionally to encourage even growth.

Light Requirements

Light Requirements

The Blue Star Fern tolerates low sunlight, but will thrive in bright, indirect sunlight.

Watering Needs

Watering Needs

Water moderately so that the soil remains damp, not soggy. Water when the surface becomes slightly dry. When watering, water the plant moderately and slowly from above, allowing water to soak through to the roots, then tip out any excess water. Water from the sides rather directly onto the leaves. Dry soil should be avoided. Reduce watering during the cold season.

Temperature Preferences

Temperature Preferences

Does well at room temperature between 60°F - 75°F. Cold temperatures should be avoided.
