Java Fern Sunrise grown out into a mat and secured to a fiber backing, giving an instant head start on covering hardscape. Ruffled leaves carry a reddish-orange tint at the tips, standing out against the bright green base color. Skill Level Easy CO2 Not Required Requires Aqua Soil Not required — epiphyte, attach to hardscape rather than planting Type Rhizome (Epiphyte) Max Height 5-8" (mat format) Placement Midground to background, on hardscape Light Level Low (approx. 20-40 PAR) Origin Indonesia Other Also available unmounted (see Java Fern Sunrise). Every mat is unique — height and shape will vary naturally. Care & Planting: Weigh or pin the mat directly onto hardscape; the rhizome will anchor itself over time and the mat backing can be trimmed away once established. Do not bury the rhizome.
