Description
The rabbit’s foot fern (Davallia fejeensis) is a visually striking houseplant, prized for its lush, feathery green fronds and unique, fuzzy rhizomes resembling a rabbit’s paw. Originating from the tropical islands of Fiji, this fern’s furry rhizomes creep over the surface and the edge of pots, making it especially charming when displayed in hanging baskets or containers where its “rabbit feet” can be enjoyed
The arching, multi-pinnate fronds provide an airy look, while the distinctive hairy rhizomes drape gracefully over the pot’s edge. This fern thrives in bright, indirect light and appreciates moderate moisture with good humidity, but it is more forgiving and less finicky than many other ferns, making it suitable even for beginners.
The rabbit’s foot fern is non-toxic to both cats and dogs, making it a reasonable choice for pet owners. For best results, avoid direct sun, keep the soil slightly moist, and fertilize during spring and summer for vibrant foliage.
