Probably the easiest plant to care for once you figure it out.

I water it every month or two. Fertilize it every 2 or 3 years. Redirect the arial roots into the pot when I water.

It gets 3 hours of direct sunlight in the morning.

Every 5 or 6 years I haul it outside in the summer. Then leach the pot with the garden hose to remove the salt buildup. I also hack the plant back to a more manageable size.

    My grandma has a fern on her porch that she’s had since 1951.

    Meanwhile every plant we buy and bring home is dead within a week.
