I’m obsessed with these plants and wish I could have some as big as my new friend from Hawaii all around my house some day! Staghorn Fern or Elkhorn Fern are the common names for Platycerium Bifurcatum which is the most popular cultivar found on the market. They’re epiphytes but can very often be found planted in soil at your local plant shop or nursery. Do you have one at home? Do you have 5? Do they grow naturally where you live? (Staghorn envy is real!)
