I have some large cedar branches that I've been using to put tillandsias on, I wonder if that would work since I don't have oak branches available. I also have a hackberry log that's in my shade garden. I'm surprised it hasn't rotted since hackberry wood is pretty weak. I might be getting the fern later this week or next week? A friend from Florida is sending me a piece.
I'll be sure to look for spores once some of the fronds develop. Should I keep the plant inside until Spring? Sorry for asking so many questions. I was thinking of attaching some sphagnum moss to the branch to keep the fern rhizomes moist, and maybe wrap that with floral wire until the fern attaches to the branch. I've never grown this type of plant before so it's exciting. I just hope I'm successful?
