    If you ever decide to remake this video, can you please actually SHOW where you are cutting? You slipped your hand in somewhere , saying that there were several parts to it, but as a novice, I have no idea what to look for, where I COULD cut. Then your body covered the rest of the process. So I am still unsure of where it would be safe to grip it while you pulled the piece off.

    I have 2 that are 35 years old.. scary seeing you rip it apart. Good video. I learned something here all these years from your post. Thanks

    Thanks! We've got 2 huge staghorn ferns that need dividing. One is in the crotch of a maple tree that has died and we wanted to get it out of there and do something with it but it is HUGE!

    What do you use for the "medium" you use to stuff behind it??
    Is normal compost ok?

    I noticed that your moss looked dry. I just mounted mine with moistened moss. Should I take it off and redo with dry moss? Thanks for a great video.

    They are also native to the tropics and sub tropics here in Australia, not just South America

      He is referring to that specific species of Platycerium.

    Hello everybody.. Does anyone know where can I buy a Platy Superbum in Europe or in France?

      Try searching on a website, Davesgarden.com. They might be able to recommend a vendor who currently carries the item for sale and can ship to Europe or France.

    Hi, I'm having trouble finding an answer for this, but do staghorn ferns need soil when they're mounted? I have tried to mount a few that have been growing in pots, and they seem to suffer as soon as they're removed from their soil and pots. I really want to be able to grow and collect them, but it's heartbreaking to see them just deteriorate after mounting

    • @LogeesPlants

      They need some kind of substrate behind the sterile frond plates to hold water and for the roots to grow into. We use sphagnum moss.

    Hi,
    My mum has a stag horn that has naturally propagated on her lime tree, it's only about 6 inches around at the moment, and it's only about 4 inches above the ground.
    Is there a way of removing and re-mounting without damaging the fern or the tree?

    • @LogeesPlants
      @LogeesPlants  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Simple just scrape it off keeping the sterile fronds as intact as possible and mount it using sphagnum moss placed behind the sterile fronds or shield. The fern doesn’t harm the tree.
