planting a staghorn fern in a hanging basket Staghorn FernSure, it's called a fern, but why doesn't it look like a fern? Easy answer, the Staghorn fern is both an air plant and a fern!

The Staghorn fern has long, tongue shaped leaves that look as though they're panting for attention, but don't be fooled. Staghorn Ferns, unlike most ferns, do not enjoy being soaking wet, because they're air plants! Care
