Microsorum musifolium 'Crocodile Fern'
Embodying its moniker to perfection, Microsorum musifolium 'Crocodile Fern' is an exotic houseplant native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. Its foliage is an enchanting array of deep green, almost prehistoric-looking fronds that mimic the scaly hide of a crocodile, hence its captivating name. Growing to a maximum height and width of about 2 feet, this fern's unique, elongated leaves can stretch up to 12 inches long, adding a dramatic flair to any indoor or outdoor setting. This fern is epiphytic in nature, meaning it can grow on other plants or objects without being parasitic, and is often found creeping over logs or stones in its natural habitat. When planted in a pot or container, the 'Crocodile Fern' will add a fascinating dimension to your space with its arching fronds, creating a cascading waterfall effect. Despite its impressive size, the 'Crocodile Fern' is a relatively slow grower, but its steady development allows for a more controlled and manageable growth. Aptl
