Sittradiantum is a small and delicate fern

Radiantium grows naturally in moist, shady environments, on the ground, on damp rocks or as an epiphyte on mossy tree trunks. The plant grows to about 40–50 cm tall and wide, with lobed, light green leaves that sit on thin, black stems. This gives it a very sleek and elegant appearance.

The genus name comes from a Greek word meaning "not getting wet" and refers to the plant's ability to excrete water without the leaves themselves becoming damp on the surface.

Botanical description.

Adiantum raddianum , or ' snittradianum' , is a species of fern in the family Adiantaceae. It is native to Central and South America, but has spread to tropical parts of Africa and Asia, where it is sometimes considered invasive.

Although Adiantum radiantum resembles our native Adiantum capillus-veneris (common Venus' hair), A. raddianum is not hardy in Nordic climates. It should therefore only be grown indoors, preferably in a bathroom, greenhouse or terrarium where the humidity is high. The species comes from

Care.

Always keep the soil or mounting material slightly moist and place the plant in a location with high humidity and as much indirect light as possible. Under no circumstances should it dry out, as this will cause the leaves to quickly wilt.

Fertilize with a weak dose, about ¼ to ½ of what is indicated on the package, every two weeks. Be extra careful when repotting as this species is sensitive to root disturbance. Buy cut Radiantum fern online!
