Hates getting its hair wet! Water this fern from the base and not from above, watering from above can cause the crown to rot.

Don’t leave me high n' dry! Browning on the frond tips is caused from a lack of humidity in the air. Moving to a humid room or frequent misting will prevent this.

Remove excess dust with a damp cloth, however take care to avoid tender new fronds. Avoid using leaf shine as the fronds are sensitive to chemicals.
