The Rabbit’s Foot Fern (Davallia fejeensis) is a unique, easy-to-care-for fern known for its soft, fuzzy rhizomes that resemble a rabbit’s foot. These rhizomes creep over the edges of pots, adding an exotic touch to its lush, feathery green fronds. Native to tropical and subtropical regions, this fern thrives indoors in high humidity and indirect light.

Key Features

• Foliage: Delicate, feathery green fronds growing from creeping, fuzzy rhizomes.
• Rhizomes: Soft, hairy, brownish-gray “rabbit foot” roots that extend over the soil and pot.
• Size: Typically grows 12-24 inches (30-60 cm) tall and wide indoors.
• Growth Habit: Clumping and trailing; rhizomes spread over surfaces, making it ideal for hanging baskets.
• Flowers: Does not flower; reproduces via spores on the underside of fronds.

Growing Conditions

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight.
• Water:
  • Keep soil evenly moist, but not soggy.
  • Water when the top inch of soil begins to dry out.
  • Avoid watering the fuzzy rhizomes directly to prevent rot.
• Soil: Well-draining, light organic mix (peat-based with perlite or orchid bark).
• Temperature: Thrives in 65-80°F (18-27°C); avoid temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
• Humidity: Prefers 50-80% humidity; mist regularly or place near a humidifier.

Care Tips

• Potting: Ideal for hanging baskets or shallow pots to showcase the rhizomes.
• Fertilization: Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
• Pruning: Remove any yellow or dying fronds at the base to encourage fresh growth.
• Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years, being careful not to bury the rhizomes.
• Pests & Diseases:
  • Watch for spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects.
  • Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

Uses
