Any and all ferns are a staple for indoor and outdoor green spaces, especially this one! Known to grow naturally next to waterfalls or on the ground of a tropical rainforest, ferns love humidity. To receive their best care, ferns need to constantly be watered and be placed in a humid area, either indoors or outdoors.
