#FernFriday is back! Fern friday season 2: episode 1 starting things off with the amazing and easy to grow Macho Fern! Macho fern which is Nephrolepis biserrata is an easy to grow fern. Just like the other Nephrolepis or sword ferns discussed in other videos, such as the Boston fern and kimberly queen fern, the macho fern is an easy to grow houseplant. Growing macho ferns indoors is easier than with many other ferns because it is more drought tolerant...for a fern. Macho ferns are hardy outdoors in zones 9 and up, though I suspect these ferns would survive in warm spots of zone 8 given a warm placement in the garden, though they may die back to the ground and need a little protection. Indoor fern care is sometimes complex, but growing the macho fern indoors is fairly easy. They do prefer evenly most, organically rich soil, but they are not as messy as other ferns like the boston fern. Give them a bright and sunny spot in the home with several hours of bright indirect light, away from drafts with weekly watering and they should do just fine. Macho ferns are clean air plants and they get big! These are giant ferns which will take up some space as they grow. Macho ferns are easy to propagate via division, just use a clean knife and divide them in the early spring and wait to fertilize planted divisions until signs of new growth occurs.

Love these majestic ferns, I for sure don't have the room in my house to grow one. Whenever I see that you have posted a new video I am so happy cause I know it's going to be a good one, and you never disappoint, I just love how everything in your yard is just amazing and beautiful, so many jungle vibes, so much color and beauty. Thanks Jeff, have a great weekend and I will see you next week, by for now.

"Macho Fern" is an apt description for this one. My first year to grow it. We have a spot next to the front porch/front door that is uncovered on the north side of the house. A bit of morning sun but moderate-bright shade most of the day. I've had a lot of success growing ferns in this space and the Macho fern really loved it. Bought in late April, a 2-gallon pot, fern almost two feet. Not it's October, the fern is huge (filling a 20" pot) with fronds at least 4' long or longer. They cascade beautifully over the sides of the pot and always have new fronds unfurling in the center. It certainly makes a statement beside the front door! Easy to grow, it did do well considering I wasn't as great keeping things watered over the summer due to recovering from major surgery. I did add fertilizer a few times and had planted it in Black Gold potting mix I get at Ace Hardware that has always been a great mix. Anyway, I highly recommend this fern if you want one (or more) that makes a statement!

This has become my favorite fern. We had a really dry fall and winter( it last rained in February this comment is being made in September). i completely neglected the plants in my backyard in the early Spring. This plant was so dry, that all of the leaves fell off and the planter was basicly a pot of dirt. In mid June I started watering it again. after a month i started fertilzing the pot of dirt. My Macho fern has completely grown back after not getting ANY water for about 3.5 months. These plants are really touch. I will never do that again because they are so hard to find in my area.

Hi Jeff! That is a beautiful fern. I don't have room in my house for a plant that big, but if I did I would try one. I have a Kangaroo Paw Fern and a small Rabbits Foot Fern, but haven't had luck with others. So happy to see another video of yours! As always, can't wait for the next one as I always learn something. Thank you for sharing!
