Platycerium Veitchii

The platycerium veitchii is a unique fern known for its striking, shield-shaped fronds. Native to the rainforests of northern Queensland, Australia, this plant thrives in humid, shaded environments. It is often referred to as the "staghorn fern" due to its resemblance to antlers. This epiphytic plant grows on trees and rocks, drawing nutrients from the air and rain. Its distinctive appearance makes it a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor gardens.
