Living picture 'Staghorn fern'

Which plant develops different leaves for different tasks? This very rare characteristic is what distinguishes the staghorn fern (Platycerium). It forms drooping fronds that carry the spores for further reproduction. Each leaf has its own shape and different size. In addition to the fronds, sterile mantle leaves also grow, which protect the epiphytic plant from drying out and damage. If the mantle leaves die, they turn brown and remain on the plant. The plant is thus protected and can use the nutrients available from the dead leaves to feed itself. Isn't that incredibly intelligent?
There are 18 different species of Platycerium (staghorn fern) worldwide, which belong to the Platycerium family.

Epi-Cerium should always have enough water available, so it is necessary to keep refilling the water reservoir. Epi-Cerium does not need a lot of light, so it can be hung where it will look best! During the growing season from March to September, you should add weakly concentrated fertilizer every other watering.
