TOXICITY
Maidenhair Ferns are generally considered non-toxic to humans and animals
Indoor plants help bring personality, break up spaces and introduce new textures and tones.
At Soto we want to make looking after your plants as easy and enjoyable as possible. The Maidenhair Fern plant profile will help you get to know your new plant.
The Maidenhair Ferns are native to tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, found in locations such as Asia, Africa, the Americas, and the Pacific islands.
While they can be a bit demanding in terms of humidity, their beauty and charm make them a favourite among fern enthusiasts and plant lovers.
It's normal for older fronds to turn brown and die as part of the natural ageing process. Regularly remove these older fronds to encourage new growth.
Bathrooms can be ideal locations for Maidenhair Ferns because they often provide higher humidity levels due to regular showering. The fern will benefit from the moisture in the air. Ensure there is adequate indirect light, as bathrooms can vary in natural light levels.
