Platycerium Pegasus

Platycerium ‘Pegasus’ is a spectacular variety of staghorn fern ( Platycerium ), renowned for its broad, elegantly cut fronds, providing a very graphic and airy ornamental effect. It is distinguished by two types of fronds: sterile, shield-like fronds that adhere to its support and fertile fronds large, deeply lobed and toothed, resembling outstretched wings, hence the name Pegasus .When hung, this epiphytic fern can be used to create a true work of art. By placing it on a wooden surface, as in its natural habitat, it clings to it and adds a rustic chalet touch to your decor. It prefers indirect light and constant humidity, but is sensitive to grease deposits and standing water on its fronds.
