Mini Creeping Vine Fern, Microgramma vaccinifolia
You will receive a fresh rhizome cutting with at least 4 to 6 leaves with adventitious aerial roots
Adventitious aerial roots are roots that grow from the stem or other above ground, non-root tissues of a plant, rather than from the main root system.These specialized roots can absorb moisture and nutrients from the air, provide anchorage to the support plant, and even facilitate propagation or photosynthesis.
Under prime fertilized conditions the veneration is amazing!
This amazing mini fern is a small epiphytic fern native to regions including Brazil, Peru, Colombia, the Caribbean, Paraguay, Argentina, and Bolivia.
Its compact size and adaptability make it a popular choice for terrariums and vivarium's. Also, moist sphagnum is ideal to facilitate root growth and to launch spreading to wood, branches, or ground, as the roots are not deep.
Light Requirements: This fern thrives in ample sunlight and may struggle without it, potentially dropping leaves. It's best to position it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize growth potential.
- Feed with a liquid organic orchid fertilizer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to leaf burn. Can be epiphytic
Watering: Microgramma vacciniifolia prefers consistent moisture but should not be waterlogged. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings and water regularly.
In terrarium settings, mounting the fern on substrates like sphagnum moss can help maintain appropriate moisture levels.
Humidity: High humidity is crucial for this fern's well-being. Maintaining humidity levels between 60-90% during the day and 70-90% at night is ideal.
Regular misting or using a humidifier can help achieve these conditions.
