ON THIS PLANT
A note from PlantMom

Plagiogyria glauca typically has strong resistance to disease and is affected by relatively few insect pests. Its care is rated difficult because it needs a consistently moist environment and frequent watering. The roots, however, are vulnerable to rot if the plant is overwatered or the surroundings lack good ventilation. This fern is suited to people with some growing experience, as most individuals can keep it alive for a while. Even so, Plagiogyria glauca may struggle to prosper and its leaves can dry out and decline in health over time.
