Description
Phlebodium aureum, commonly known as the blue star fern or golden polypody, is an epiphytic fern native to tropical regions. It has distinctive, blue-green, lobed fronds that resemble stars, providing an attractive foliage texture. The fern is well-suited for growing in hanging baskets or mounted on a board. Phlebodium aureum prefers bright, indirect light and humid conditions. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the fronds. It is an excellent air-purifying plant. Mist the fronds regularly to maintain humidity.
