It is a popular choice for its many soft, delicate leaves and easy care. The Black Maidenhair fern grows up to 15 in in height, and prefers care similar to other ferns, preferring indirect sunlight or partial shade and moderate moisture.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Place your fern near a window that gets indirect sunlight. Maidenhair Ferns do best in areas with indirect sunlight and temperatures between 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Water your fern frequently, but don't let it sit in water. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings, then water deeply until the water runs out of the drainage hole.
Feed your fern with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season.
Trim off any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's shape.
