Care Information
Aftercare Advice for your Plebodium 'Blue Star' Bears Paw Fern:
- Keep the compost moist (but not waterlogged) at all times except winter when plants are dormant and water can be cut down (but do not allow to dry out so that the compost shrinks from the side of the pot).
- If you can't place it in a humid atmosphere like your bathroom you can still grow this plant, just mist the leaves regularly with water and or place the pot on a tray of damp pebbles.
- Keep your fern at 18-25°C.
- Feed with a general-purpose plant food once a month.
- When watering, pour water around the sides of the plant, as pouring it the middle can cause water to get caught at the bases of the leaves, which can result in rot.
