Full description and specifications

Microsorum thaiicum is a rare exotic fern native to Thailand - one of the few varieties with naturally blue (metallic blue) leaves on the planet. Made famous after being used as a natural setting in the film Avatar, it has been proven that despite its very exotic appearance and the fact that it is a truly rare plant, it is also very easy to grow.
Growing recommendations : Lower brightness, medium-high humidity. It is considered a resistant fern, which easily adapts to environmental conditions, preserving its color. Ideal plant for terrariums, but also grows well in apartment conditions. Spraying and maintaining high humidity helps to accentuate the color.
It can also be grown as an epiphyte or lithophyte plant, as long as adequate humidity is provided.
The plant reproduces by spores (usually present on the back of the leaf) or by rhizomes that can later be divided. When reproduction is desired, planting in Sphagnum Moss, in a terrarium with a controlled microclimate, is recommended, although reproduction can also occur spontaneously, under normal conditions.
Fertilization can be done with a very diluted orchid fertilizer. Many growers use a dosage of only 10% of the package directions.

Watering will be done by consistent spraying - this fern has shallow surface roots and is sensitive to overwatering.

The decorative vase is not included in the price. 

Note: specimens with 3-4 leaves
