Pteris ensiformis

Family: Pteridaceae, Genus: Pteris

Description:

Pteris ensiformis, an ornamental fern from Asia and the Pacific, is notable for its silvery white fronds with green margins. It thrives in humid environments with shady to mild light, making it suitable for terrariums. This fern grows up to 18 inches tall and does not tolerate frost or direct sunlight. Over-watering can cause leaf yellowing, while too much light may lead to browning. It is a moderate to fast grower, preferring a slightly acidic pH of 6-6.5.
