Davallia ‘Wooly Tassle’

If you’re looking for a houseplant with a whimsical twist, then look no further than ‘Wooly Tassel’! This rabbit’s foot fern features lacy green fronds and delightfully–or oddly–furry rhizomes that creep along the soil surface and spill out over the edges of its container, almost like the fuzzy legs of a light brown tarantula. Aptly named for its distinctive appearance, ‘Wooly Tassel’ will be just the oddity you need for a lower light space. To keep its fronds from burning, avoid placing it in direct sunlight. Like other ferns, ‘Wooly Tassel’ appreciates moist, but not waterlogged, soil.

• Light Requirements: Bright, Indirect
• Water Requirements: Keep soil consistently moist, not soggy. Allow the top inch to dry before watering. "Little and often" is a good rule of thumb.
• Soil Requirements: As an epiphyte, it does not require traditional soil. If planting, use a very loose, well-draining, organic-rich mix. Amend all purpose potting soil with perlite or orchid bark for proper drainage and aeration.
