Streamline NYC Fox Planter

Product Information

The plant must have well-draining soil. After watering, the excess water must run out and not accumulate at the base. Is this happens, the roots will rot and your plant can die.

Foxtail fern enjoys warmer temperatures of between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Do not allow the temperature to drop below 50°F (10°C) in winter. In USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11, it may be grown outdoors. It is not tolerant of frost. In cooler regions, outdoor plants can be overwintered indoors. If you are doing this, ensure that you do not increase the dampness in your home too much. Dampness attracts mold and bacteria that are not good for plants or humans. It prefers filtered sun, partial sun, or partial shade. This makes it ideal for an east-facing garden or room. If possible, it is best to plant in groups of 3-5 to create an impressive (and dramatic) impact, so choosing a container large enough to allow this will be best.The Foxtail fern is a great indoor choice for beginners. The plant is easy to care for. Ensure that the soil is moist and that your plant does not stand in direct sun. give it loads of light, mist-spray, and fertilize monthly. I like clay or terracotta pots for several reasons. First, they are eco-friendly and won’t add to plastic pollution. Secondly, they allow airflow and water evaporation through the walls. They also look so much more attractive.

You may even consider standing your plant in a kitchen or bathroom. These rooms generally have higher humidity than other rooms in the house. This plant is not tolerant of frost. It is also not happy in draughts, either hot or cold. Like most plants, do not stand your foxtail fern under air vents, in front of air conditioners, or heaters. Avoid draughty corridors or corners. A larger container will take longer to dry out and will be easier to maintain. Compost For FoxglovesWhen choosing a container for foxgloves, remember that these are plants that can grow rather tall, so it is important to choose a heavy, sturdy pot that will not easily tip over with the weight of the plants. Foxgloves are best planted into containers filled with a peat-free, loam-based compost that is rich in organic matter. I enjoy using organic mulch that is made up of weed-free straw and shredded bark. Mulch helps to keep the soil cool and retain moisture. While you can get away with somewhat closer spacing in a container for most plants, you do need to make sure that the rosettes can grow large enough to allow flowering stalks to form in the plants’ second year when planting foxgloves in a container. They can withstand winter temperatures down to 50°F (10°C). If you live in a very cold climate, you may consider a heating device for your indoor plants.

Foxtail fern enjoys light shade. They are ideal for planting in east-facing gardens or standing near east-facing windows. You can also plant your foxtail fern in a shady north-facing garden. It will enjoy some morning sun but does not want direct hot afternoon sun as this will damage the plant. Foxtail fern thrives in conditions that are above average humidity. Average homes have a humidity of 40% to 50%. While this will probably be fine for the most part, increasing it will make your plant that much happier. Spider mites can become a problem in winter if the humidity is very low. You may not see the mites, but you will see fine webbing among the leaves. Increasing the humidity will help. Your plant can grow to heights of up to 2 feet (0.6m) and a width of 2 feet to 3 feet (0.6m to 1m) in a pot.Growing foxgloves in containers does take more work than growing them in the ground, but it can still be a relatively easy and hassle-free option for a container garden. In the ground, spacing foxgloves correctly is important and you should plant them at least 30-35cm apart to allow the rosettes to grow sufficiently. The foxtail fern can also tolerate full shade, but you may notice that the leaves emerge as a lighter green. Gardeners who struggle to find direct sunlight in their home or garden will be thrilled to know that the Foxtail fern is the perfect plant for this environment. A water-soluble fertilizer is easy to use. Simply dilute according to the instructions and pour onto the soil. Do not pour it over the plant. Also, ensure that your soil is very wet. Pouring fertilizer onto dry soil can damage the roots of the plant.
