QuestionMy Rabbits foot fern keeps loosing it's leaves. I got it several months ago and it was doing rather well. Now the fern is falling apart. Even the healthy looking ones come off with the slightest movement. I water the plant about two to three (maybe more) times a week. We have well water and the plant is growing next to a window facing west, but is a little shaded by trees.
AnswerBrittany,
I suggest that you take it outside and hang it in a tree. It will like the brighter light it will get and the higher humidity along with the night time temperature drops. Cut back on the watering to no more than twice a week or 3 times at most, it needs to dry out between waterings, if it is constantly wet the roots will rot and that may be what you are seeing now. Do not water it unless it feels very dry and light weight when you pick it up. Good luck with your plant.
