  • FEATURES

    Behold the whirlwind that is Living Lace ‘Hurricane’! This bird’s nest fern is like looking into the eye of a hurricane, with bright green, strappy leaves that twist and swirl around its center. Nature's tempestuous dance! Leaves are thick with crinkled, wavy edges. Their leathery quality makes them more tolerant of lower humidity than other finer-fronded ferns. In the wild, you may find ‘Hurricane’ absorbing nutrients from water and organic matter that collects in its center.

    Maintenance Notes: 
    • For optimal performance, keep your Fern at 60-85°F (15-29°C). 
    • Ferns thrive in medium to bright indirect light. Placing them near an eastern- or northern-facing window, that does not get any midday direct sunlight, would be ideal.  
    • Ferns prefer high humidity to prevent their edges from turning brown. Cold drafts and forced air can also lead to browning tips and edges. You can supplement their humidity with a humidifier, regular misting, or by placing them on a pebble tray with water. 
    • Ferns prefer moist, but not soggy soil. Be sure to water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure good drainage and do not allow your Fern to sit in water for extended periods of time, after it has received a good soaking. 
    • Feed your Fern once per month at half strength when it is actively growing. Reduce frequency of fertilization in the winter months. If no new leaves are growing, it does not need to be fertilized.
    • Protect furniture when watering & fertilizing.
    • When repotting your Fern, use an all-purpose potting mix, with perlite added to ensure good drainage.
