  • Hello, I’m a plant parent who frequently forgets to water her plants. I did that to my Maidenhair fern (Adiantum), and it completely died. Here’s how I revived mine.

    This is so cool, can’t believe that worked! I’m a complete noob and of course picked this as one of my first plants. This gives me hope 😊

    This happened to me several times with my Maidenhair… but lo and behold it perked up again and again. This time around I see to it that it gets enough humidity. Thanks for this video! ♥️

    Another lovely video :) We have these guys growing basically like weeds here in the subtropical mountain area around me. I noticed some of these growing from a crack in the wall of my apartment complex's open parking lot and made attempts to pull them off and prop (was given weird looks by the security guards haha), so i 100% agree they're not divas, they just need to be watered a lot and have enough humidity, which I think is the main problem when growing these in the US, UK or just places with low humidity.
    It's spring again, and this time I might attempt growing them from spores.

    Mine shrivelled up either after a very hot day or not sure I gave it some extra water. Anyhow thanks for your video. Will not be throwing it out but keeping it!

    I once properly killed a maidenshair fern. I read somewhere that they can't be overwatered, so I watered it every day. Plus, I wasn't giving it filtered water, it was just getting straight up tap water.
    The plant thrived for a month with plenty of nutrition and direct light, but then it suddenly stopped growing and started going down hill, so I chopped the fronds back and reduced the watering, but it never came back.
    I currently have another maidenhair fern that I chopped back recently after getting fed up with how it looks. It's been chopped back for about a week now, and it's currently bouncing back so quickly due to all of the direct afternoon sun it's getting that it's already rivalling the size that I bought it at (the typical size for boxstore maidenhair ferns). This time, I've opted to water it less with filtered water, and I've stopped rotating it as the original shape I had the other one in was not good. It looked boxy due to me not being around to rotate it on the weekend, and they're such prolific growers that I'd end up with massive out of place fronds that ruined the whole look of the plant.
    I will say though that you need to be careful with trimming back larger maidenhair ferns. They do eventually develop mound-like 'stems' that the fronds grow out of- I accidentally discovered that when I chopped my fern back and accidentally cut a massive chunk out of the stem, which has caused a bald-spot in the one part of the plant.

    I killed my first one, and second one is on it's way out. it suffers browning of the leaves, and I don't see any new fronds coming out. I struggled with the first one for so long, it did used to have new fronds, but they were tiny and would just brown before too long... eventually I had to leave for 11 days, and what little there was of it, was gone. my conclusion was that it was something in the water, cause once I got my boston fern, first time I watered it from the tap, and it was miserable, but it recovered after I switched to stale water. so I tried watering my maiden hair with same water, but it makes no difference, she's following in the footsteps if her predecessor

      Try filtered water instead. Leaving your water to sit doesn't really make as much as a difference that people say it does due to chloramine being used to treat tap water, not chlorine. Plus, filtering gets rid of other potential dangers as well, like heavy metals or other contaminants.
