4.7 Store Rating

With around 20 varieties of Staghorn Ferns, what makes this beauty unique is its silvery gray-green fronds. Pair the Australian Silver Elkhorn Fern next to the Netherlands Elkhorn for contrasting coloration. If you're trying to choose which type of Staghorn to add to your collection, check out the star varieties in our carefully-curated collection, because while all Staghorns are whimsical and collectible, we think Platycerium veitchii, bifurcatum Netherlands, elephantotis, and superbum are the most unusual and rewarding. Staghorn ferns can be grown in many ways: in a pot or mounted on a slab of wood, tree fern fiber, or a wire basket. They do well indoors and outdoors in areas where freezes rarely occur.

• Average mature height: 2-3 feet
• Light Requirements: Mostly shade

Four potted plants in increasing sizes are labeled: Promo (2-4 tall), Classic (3-8 tall), Premium (8-15 tall), and Supreme (8-25 tall), showing plant and pot dimensions for each size.

Introducing Premium & Supreme plants

We're expanding our product lineup with plants that need more space than our classic 2/3-cup pot allows.

Premium Plants come in a 3/4-quart pot and Supreme Plants come in a 3/4-gallon pot.

New Premium & Supreme Plants will release each Friday.

Shop with confidence

Your plants are packed with the utmost care, but shipping can be stressful on the little guys.

That's why you have 30 days from the arrival date to experiment with them. If they don't bounce back, you're eligible for a refund.

We sell baby plants

Wellspring Gardens is the starter plant, AKA “baby plant” shop. We just get you started, so you get all the credit for raising your plants under your green thumb.

How tall are baby plants?

We aim to ship your plants when they’re 3-8” tall, though we often ship them taller than that.

What determines whether I get a 3-, 6-, or even 18-inch-tall plant?

The exact size of the plant we send you is variable on the time of year and how long we've been growing it out.

Mulberry Fuel: Set it and forget it for 90 days

While we call it Mulberry Fuel after our favorite fruiting tree, this fertilizer can really be used on any fruiting plant to ensure its plans come to fruition.

Apply the granules of this 20-6-9, slow-release formula to the soil surface of your plants and they will slowly feed them over a 90-day period.
