Embark on a journey to the enchanting world of ferns with the Platycerium Platycerium Elephantotis, a majestic addition to our curated Platycerium collection at Greenboog.

Native to Africa, this fern stands out for its large, rounded basal fronds that resemble an elephant’s ear, offering a distinctive appearance perfect for plant enthusiasts.
Features:
- Majestic Shield-Like Fronds: Unlike other Staghorn Ferns, Platycerium elephantotis features large, rounded shield fronds that grow wide and flat, making it truly unique.
- Cascading Growth Habit: The fertile fronds grow vertically, while the shield fronds protect the plant’s roots, creating a beautiful, cascading contrast.
- Air-Purifying Qualities: Like other ferns, it helps filter the air, improving indoor air quality by removing toxins.
- Easy Care: This species thrives in bright, indirect light and requires minimal watering, making it suitable for a wide range of plant lovers.
Plant Specifications:
- Pot Size: Best grown mounted or in a pot around 10-12 inches, where the shield fronds can spread naturally.
- Mature Size: Can grow up to 3 feet wide, with its large shield fronds reaching up to 2 feet in height.
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight but can adapt to partial shade.
- Water: Water when the soil or base of the mount dries out, and mist the plant to maintain humidity.
- Hardiness: Ideal for USDA zones 10-11, but it thrives indoors with proper care and humidity.
Platycerium elephantotis is an extraordinary plant, offering a distinct visual appeal with its elephant ear-like fronds, perfect for collectors and anyone looking to add a rare beauty to their indoor or outdoor garden.
