• Plant description:  Staghorn ferns are tropical epiphytes, meaning that they grow on the surface of trees and derive their needs from the air, rain, and debris around them. The Staghorn Fern is named after its leaves, which resemble the forked antlers of a stag. These beautiful fern leaves are called fronds and feature antler fronds that extend tall from the center of the plant and shield fronds that form a protective circle around the root base.
