Java Fern Microsorum Indo - Mini Driftwood

Java Fern Microsorum Indo (Microsorum pteropus 'Indo') is a robust and striking variant of the classic Java Fern, originating from the tropical rivers and streams of Southeast Asia. It features broad, deeply textured, dark-green fronds with a distinctive rippled surface that catches light beautifully, giving it a more dramatic appearance than the standard variety. This piece arrives pre-attached to a mini natural driftwood — a compact, ready-to-place feature perfect for smaller aquariums, nano tanks, or as a detailed accent in larger scapes.

Propagation: New plantlets develop naturally along the leaf margins and rhizome. Once plantlets have 3–4 leaves, they can be separated and attached to new hardscape. Never bury the rhizome in substrate as it will rot.
