Platycerium bifurcatumPlatycerium bifurcatum grows as an epiphyte with two different kinds of frond. Rounded shield fronds cover the compact root pad. Fertile fronds grow outwards and fork repeatedly into the familiar antler-like crown.The shield fronds slowly turn tan and papery as they age. This older tissue stays on the plant, protects the base and catches organic material around the roots. Brown spore patches may appear beneath mature fertile fronds.A mount or hanging basket lets the small root pad be soaked thoroughly, then drain freely with air around the roots. Show more
