This has been a testy plant for me to grow.
It's my second Maidenhair Fern.
I usually don't buy another one when
I have a fail because I feel bitter at the plant for
letting me down and
like my house is not right for it.
But I really like this plant and it's airy
and delicate leaves.
I gave it a second try.
I bought a small one.
Look at it now.
it's beautiful.
It likes a lot of humidity
so it lives in my bathroom that
gets a daily dose of shower steam.
I guess that's the main key.
We went to a botanical garden and
saw many of these growing on the
fish pond wall and also in pots directly
in a pond.
So the botanical garden also had some
testy looking ferns.
That made me feel better.
Apparently that's what these ferns do.
