Nephrolepis cordifolia, commonly known as the tuberous sword fern or erect sword fern, is a species of fern in the family Nephrolepidaceae. It is native to tropical and subtropical regions and can grow as a lithophyte or epiphyte. This fern is known for its tuberous roots and arching fronds, making it a popular ornamental plant.
Nephrolepis cordifolia thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It enjoys high humidity and should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the fronds.
تربة
This fern prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and pine bark works well. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.
سماد
Feed Nephrolepis cordifolia with a balanced liquid fertilizer, such as 10-10-10, every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
إعادة السمعة
Repot the fern every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger and refresh the soil mix. Handle the roots gently to avoid damage.
الانتشار
Propagate Nephrolepis cordifolia by division. Divide the plant during the growing season, ensuring each division has a healthy root system and fronds. Plant the divisions in fresh soil and water thoroughly.
تشذيب
Prune the fern to remove dead or yellowing fronds and to maintain its shape. Regular pruning encourages new growth and keeps the plant looking tidy.
تسمم
Nephrolepis cordifolia is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe choice for households with animals and children.
إضافي
To maintain high humidity, consider placing the fern on a humidity tray or misting it regularly. Avoid placing the plant near drafts or heating vents, as this can dry out the fronds.
