Did you know...?
Despite being called a fern, rather surprisingly they're not; in fact they are part of the lily family!
The leaves of this delicate plant are needle-like and deep green in colour, giving us oriental vibes. Lace ferns enjoy being relatively moist during the growing season but appreciate a period of rest during the winter months. In watering terms this means weekly in the summer and every 10-14 days in the winter. During heatwaves you might need to water your plant twice a week but it depends on how hot your home gets and therefore how quickly the soil dries out.
