Fern-Rabbit's Foot 6" Pot (Davallia fejeensis)
Overview:
The Rabbit's Foot Fern is a captivating and whimsical plant, named for the soft, furry rhizomes that resemble a rabbit's foot as they crawl along the surface of the soil. These distinctive rhizomes, combined with the fern's delicate, lace-like fronds, make it a conversation piece in any home. The Rabbit's Foot Fern is perfect for hanging baskets or placed on shelves where its rhizomes can drape beautifully over the edges.
Light/Water Requirements:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Direct sunlight can scorch the delicate fronds.

Care Tips:
