Up for sale is a seed 6-year-old, seed-grown Euphorbia stellata established on its own roots in a 100mm square pot.
This plant has been cultivated with its main body subterranean to encourage a thick, heavy central caudex. As shown in the close-up photo against an Australian $1 coin, the exposed upper shoulders of the woody caudex are already well-developed, highly structured, and completely solid. It features a healthy crown of radiating, tooth-edged patterned branches.
The plant is perfectly primed to be lifted and staged by the buyer to showcase the full subterranean portion of the caudex.
The last image was taken over 1.5 year ago in 86mm pot.
Use an open, gritty, mineral-heavy substrate. Provide bright light to full sun to maintain tight branch growth and prominent markings. Water thoroughly only when completely bone-dry. Keep 100% dry in winter.
Care Instructions
Follow these detailed care instructions to keep your Elkhorn Fern thriving:
Mounting
Elkhorn ferns are epiphytic, meaning they naturally grow attached to trees. For best results:
- Mount on wood, cork, or similar materials
- Use sphagnum moss around the roots
- Secure with fishing line or plant-safe wire until established
Watering
Proper watering is crucial:
- Soak the root ball and shield fronds thoroughly when the moss feels dry
- Allow excess water to drain completely
- Reduce watering in winter
- Mist shield fronds occasionally
Light & Positioning
Place your fern where it receives:
- Bright, indirect light
- Protection from direct sun, especially midday
- Good air circulation
