Despite its delicate appearance, the foxtail fern is very easy to grow, and makes a handsome specimen in a hanging basket or tall pot where its feathery fronds will cascade over the sides. Although not a true fern, its finely divided foliage and general appearance means it is usually sold as one

Keep the compost moist from spring to autumn; reduce in winter, allowing the top to dry out between waterings. It is tolerant of drier air than true ferns, but misting the foliage occasionally keeps it healthy |
ADDITIONAL CARE
If you notice a tip or edge burn often with a yellowish hue at the edge, especially on older leaves, it could be due to your tap water. To solve this, allow your tap water to stand overnight before watering so the chlorine and fluoride can evaporate. Remove any yellow leaves to keep your plant strong and growing. Do not use any shine products on the leaves, instead, clean leaves occasionally with a damp cloth
