I have an Adiantum fern, but I can’t remember which one exactly. It is in a pot outside (shade) for the moment, but I want to plant it in the garden. I hope it will be fine as I really like the airy fronds and the black stems.
On a side note (I do like side notes) my indoor maiden hair fern was look very sorry itself so I fed it some Babybio every week for a month and it's like a whole new plant - masses of new growth, extra height. I've never seen such a change in an indoor plant. I thought it was being temperamental about moisture levels and a sun-diva, but perhaps mine were sulking as hungry.
The newly emerging fronds of A.venustum are particularly nice ; akin to bronze threads , a superb plant . I have quite a number of ferns in the garden , some common and some unusual ; they seem totally trouble free (pests included) , and seem oblivious of sun or shade . Wouldn't be without any of them !
Mine is not looking particularly well, but it can’t be food as it has been recently repotted. I wonder if it needs more sunlight. Or maybe it just needs to get used to being outdoors. I’ve bought it from Fibrex earlier this year and it was in a greenhouse.
