Extended Features:	Most often grown outdoors in shade gardens, autumn ferns are also adaptable to growing indoors as a houseplant. This colorful fern emerges in spring with new fronds being a rich copper or orange color, mellowing to honey green and finally maturing to deep green by summer. The triangular bipinnate fronds are evergreen in frost-free climates and when grown as a houseplant. They form an arching, vase-shaped clump that will spread slowly over time to fill out your container or make a small-scale groundcover outdoors.
How To Maintain:	For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C). Prefers higher humidity to prevent leaf edges from browning. Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing. Protect furniture when watering. Water as soon as the surface of the potting mix feels mostly dry. Never allow potting mix to dry out completely as this can rapidly cause many brown leaf edges. An evenly moist potting mix should be your goal. Ferns tend to need rich, moist, well-drained soil and high humidity to thrive. Add some coarse sand or perlite to help improve drainage in your potting mixes. Cold drafts can cause their fronds to turn brown on the edges and tips. Bright filtered light is best. Directly in front of windows with no direct sun will work, as well as near eastern or western facing windows, but avoid mid-day sun which can be too strong. Outdoors, this fern is easy to grow in average to rich, slightly acidic, moist s
