About the Foxtail Fern

The Foxtail Fern Plants are actually no ferns because they are multiplied from seeds and do not produce spores. But the name came from the clumping habit of the plant that the plant looks like a Fern. This plant has an unusual, symmetrical look and has arching plumes of tightly packed, needle-like leaves, which look soft and delicate.

When this plant blooms, it gives white flowers and produces red berries. Due to its fragile appearance, some gardeners do not choose them because it looks difficult and extensive to take care of it. However, with the appropriate care, it can really be an interesting plant to plant in your garden.

Planting Instructions

Sun

Plant it in a slightly shaded area, and avoid the hot afternoon sun in the hottest zones. If there is a gentle morning sun with light shade, this specimen can take it. In winter, locate it in bright light and even direct morning sun.

Watering

Water it regularly during drought and seasonal fertilization. Before watering it again, allow the top three inches of soil to dry out.

Prune

Prune back yellowing stems on the plant to give a tidy appearance and encourage new growth.

Fertilizer

When the needle-like leaves turn pale or yellow, it means that it is time to fertilize it. Feed this plant in spring monthly with a balanced 10-10-10 plant food at half strength.
