Rabbit's foot fern is a perennial plant that, like others in the Davallia genus, has lacy upright fronds with a delightful, quirky trait—they grow from creeping scaly rhizomes that are covered with a fine, fur-like mat of hairs. These ferns are usually epiphytic (growing on other plants and absorbing nutrients and moisture through the air). Rabbit's foot fern are frequently grown as hanging or potted plants with the exposed hairy roots spilling out of the container or pinned to the sides of moss baskets.
Rabbit's foot fern grows best in humid conditions, out of direct light, in a slightly acidic potting mix, and thrives in temperatures above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Read on for our care guide.
Here are the main care requirements for growing a rabbit's foot fern:
- Do not bury a majority of the rhizomes under the soil when planting, letting most of them grow uncontrolled or cascading from the container. Letting some of the rhizomes dive into the potting mix may be unavoidable.
- Give plants ample water and mist the rhizomes daily if not grown in a humid room.
- Flush the soil of accumulated fertilizer salts at least once a year. Soak the root ball to clean out fertilizer if you desire.

from 292 reviewsI’m obsessed with my Philodendron Heart Leaf from The Rooted Plant Shop! It arrived healthy, vibrant, and ready to thrive.

I love watching you on a TT we have so much fun with all the planty peeps. The babies was so packaged so well you can tell you love your babies. Thank you for my amazing new plants.

I’ve made several orders. Ships from MI to AR. Plants are great quality. I love watching her lives. Feels like I’m part of a plant family. Very grateful that I found The Rooted Plant Shop.

Beautiful plant and well packaged. Unfortunately UPS treated the box like a football and 5 of the leaves had the tops snapped. Not RPS’s fault.

This plant does not even look Real! But it is! Barely even a wrinkle on arrival! Thank you Mel! I will be buying more!

Most amazing person! I recommend Rooted plants to all! The plants boxed with care and 10/10!
