Shield Fern - 6 Plants

Shield Ferns are a selection of six assorted plants that are incredibly useful for creating localized humid areas in a reptile's environment. These slow-growing plants can be planted in the substrate and are suitable for both arboreal (tree-dwelling) and terrestrial (ground-dwelling) species.

Key Features:

• Localized Humidity: Excellent for creating humid areas within the enclosure.
• Slow Growth: Grows slowly, making it easy to manage within the vivarium.
• Versatile Placement: Can be placed in their existing pots or planted directly into the substrate.
• Bioactive Setup: Ideal for bioactive setups when used with HabiStat Jungle Bio and Amazon Clay Balls.
• Optimal Lighting: Thrives under the Arcadia Jungle Dawn LED Light, ensuring suitable lighting conditions for growth.

Benefits:

• Aesthetic Appeal: Adds a lush, natural element to your vivarium with its delicate fronds.
• Natural Habitat: Enhances the natural look of your enclosure, suitable for rainforest, forest, and jungle environments.
• Humidity Pockets: Provides cover and creates humid pockets, beneficial for species that thrive in high-humidity conditions.

Plant Care:

• Watering: Keep the soil constantly moist but not waterlogged. Water the plant when the top 0.5-1" of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering.
• Humidity: Occasional misting will help to prevent brown leaf tips.
• Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 15-29°C.
• Lighting: Prefers bright, indirect light or partial shade. Too much light can scorch the leaves. Use the Arcadia Jungle Dawn LED Bar for optimal results.

Notes:

• Variety: Plant types may vary from those shown in the images.
• Environment: Ideal for rainforest, forest, and jungle environments.

Shield Ferns are an excellent choice for adding lush greenery and localized humidity to your vivarium. Enhance your bioactive setup with these versatile and slow-growing plants, providing both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits for your reptiles.
