The Fern 'Austral Gem' is a stunning indoor houseplant known for its lush, vibrant foliage. This hardy fern features attractive, glossy fronds that can reach heights of 12 to 18 inches with a spread of approximately 18 to 24 inches. Its growth habit is compact and bushy, making it an excellent choice for tabletops or shelves.

Additionally, the Austral Gem has moderate water requirements. It prefers consistently moist soil without becoming waterlogged. Regular misting can also help maintain humidity, which this fern appreciates.
With its unique texture and easy-care nature, the Fern 'Austral Gem' is perfect for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts looking to enhance their indoor spaces with a touch of greenery.
