Light
Kimberly Queen Ferns, whether indoors or outdoors, prefer environments with partial sun to low light conditions. When grown indoors, they flourish near bright windows, favoring indirect light to prevent potential harm to their delicate fronds from direct sunlight.

Water
Maintaining consistent moisture is crucial for the well-being of the Kimberly Queen Fern.

Deep watering is recommended when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil are dry, with the frequency adjusted based on factors like heat and light. Notably, these ferns may be sensitive to minerals in hard water, making the use of filtered water a wise choice for their optimal health.
