Species: Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star' · Height: 80 cm (including nursery pot) · Pot size: ø26 cm

The blue fern (Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star') is a fern with deeply cut, blue-green leaves that grow from the pot in a loose, cascading clump. This plant is 80 cm tall including nursery pot and comes in a pot of ø26 cm. At the base, you can see the hairy, creeping rhizomes growing over the edge of the pot.

It fits well in a bathroom, bedroom or living room and is an easy fern for those who do not go around with a watering can every day. Place it in a bright spot without strong sun; partial shade is also suitable. Keep the potting soil slightly moist and do not let it dry out completely. The blue fern is non-toxic to cats and dogs. It is supplied in the nursery pot; choose a decorative pot separately.

Delivery

Shipping a two-metre plant takes more than a box and some tape. That's why we do it differently from an ordinary online shop.

How your plant arrives in one piece

Fresh from the greenhouse
Your plant does not sit in a warehouse for weeks. The grower only takes it out of the greenhouse after you order and prepares it straight away.
Packed securely
In a box made for plants. Plant and soil are secured and a protective sleeve keeps the leaves intact, so nothing shifts on the way.
Protected from heat and frost
Is it very hot or freezing outside? Then we add a cold pack or heat pack to the box, so the weather doesn't affect your plant on the way.
The right carrier for every size
Smaller plants are delivered by PostNL or DHL. The very largest plants travel upright on a pallet with a specialist carrier.
You know exactly when it arrives
As soon as your plant is on its way, you receive track & trace by email, so you can make sure someone is home and, for a large plant, someone to help carry it in.

Frequently asked questions about Phlebodium aureum 'Blue Star'

The questions we're asked most about this plant. Can't find yours? Our plant experts are happy to help.

Ask your question

How large is this blue fern?

This Phlebodium 'Blue Star' is 80 cm tall, measured including the nursery pot, and comes in a pot of ø26 cm. The leaves grow loosely and partly hang over the edge, so it also takes up some space in width.

Where should you place a blue fern?

In a bright spot without strong sun, or in partial shade. It does well in a bathroom with a window because of the higher humidity. A spot directly above a radiator dries out the leaf tips.

How often should you water a blue fern?

Water as soon as the top centimetre of the potting soil is dry, often once a week in summer. In winter it needs less. Do not leave water standing in the pot or saucer.

Is the blue fern toxic to cats and dogs?

No, Phlebodium aureum is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to cats and dogs. You can therefore also place it where you have pets.

Why is my blue fern getting brown leaves?

Brown, dry leaf tips are usually caused by dry air or potting soil that has dried out too much. A single old leaf at the bottom turning brown is normal; then cut it off at the base.

Should you mist a blue fern?

It is not necessary, but it appreciates somewhat higher humidity. In a room with dry air, it helps to mist it occasionally or place it near other plants.
