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.
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!
have a stag on an old tree trunk,not getting the shade it needs,really old but has a lot of sprouts,how much do I dig in the actually ball of dead frowns??
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.
Andinum come from Peru, Bolivia, and maybe south colombia and northernmost Chile in dry forest and jungle of Andes mountaion, it the only Platycerium or staghorn species in new world/America, Southeast Asia are have the most species specially Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand
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
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?
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.

I like your video so much ! New follower
Which one is lying on the left side? The silver grey one. Amazing❤
You make it look so easy.
Beautiful specimen.
What do you use for the "medium" you use to stuff behind it??
Is normal compost ok?
Sphagnum moss
Wow! Amazing great job!
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.
Thank u🙏
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.

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.
Beautiful
