Platycerium bifurcatum , better known as Elkhorn Fern, is a spectacular and unique fern
This plant gets its name from its leaves that resemble horns or branches. Platycerium bifurcatum is an epiphytic plant, meaning that in its natural environment it grows on trees, where it captures moisture and nutrients from the air.
This makes the fern very easy to care for and an excellent candidate for being hung or mounted in a creative way, as many are now doing.
Care.
For best results, place Platycerium bifurcatum in indirect light and keep the soil slightly moist. As it is an epiphytic plant, it thrives best in an airy soil mix, and we recommend planting it in our special soil for epiphytes or mounting it on a plate of moss. Keep the humidity high to mimic its natural environment.
