This charming treasure, a slowly creeping miniature fern, forms a 1″ high mat on tree fern trunks, rocks, old logs, anywhere it can creep and have light and moisture. Also great for terrariums, or as a houseplant or indoor/outdoor plant in cooler, shadier spots. Water it regularly but lightly, intermittently, it can dry in between. Hardy to 20-25F, USDA zone 9.
