Foxtail Ferns FAQ
How to Care for Foxtail Fern?
Foxtail ferns thrive with proper care. Plant them in areas with soft, filtered shade, providing morning sun but protecting them from harsh afternoon sunlight. When indoors, ensure they receive bright, indirect light. To avoid overwatering, establish a consistent weekly watering schedule, allowing the top three inches of soil to dry between waterings. Adequate drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, especially in potted foxtail ferns.
Is Foxtail Fern Poisonous to Humans?
It’s important to exercise caution, as all parts of the foxtail fern, including the flowers and berries, may be toxic to both humans and pets. It’s advisable to be mindful of this toxicity and take appropriate precautions when handling or placing foxtail ferns in living spaces.
How Big Do Foxtail Ferns Get?
Foxtail ferns can reach a moderate size. On average, they grow to be about 2 to 3 feet in height and width, creating a lush, bushy appearance. Their manageable size makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor settings.
Are Foxtail Ferns Deer Resistant?
