Microsorum pteropus

Microsorum pteropus is an aquatic fern from Asia, reaching 15-30 cm in height. It should be cultivated by attaching it to driftwood or rocks, ideally remaining secured until it gains stability.

If planted deep down, do not cover the rhizome because it will rot.

Easy to propagate by dividing the rhizome. It is a hardy plant that grows in all conditions. The black spots under the leaves are sporangia (reproductive organs), not signs of disease, as many believe.
