Make Your Space More Tropical with Foxtail Ferns! Technically speaking, the gorgeous foxtail fern plant is not actually a fern! It is a member of the asparagus family and uses seeds to reproduce. Foxtails are loved for their fun, fluffy upright growth. They can be grown indoors and outdoors depending on your climate. Foxtail ferns have tuberous roots, and because of this system, it is important not to plant your foxtail next to any fragile plants it could possibly choke out. Your Guide to Foxtail Fern Care Care: Easy, hardy plant. Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal where your plant receives some morning sun, and avoids the hot afternoon rays. Over winter, if indoors, you may need to provide some direct sunlight in the morning. If placed outdoors, place in a lightly shaded area that avoids sun during the hottest part of the day. Water: Between waterings, allow the top 3 inches of soil to dry out. The foxtail fern is drought resistant once established. This plant would be perfect over summer! Temperature: Foxtails like warm/hot weather. It does not tolerate cold temperatures well so make sure to winter indoors and to bring your plant inside once the seasons start to change. Humidity: If grown indoors make sure to provide your plant some humidity. Feeding: Fertilize seasonally, once a month during growing season. Foxtail ferns are in need of fertilizer when the needles are light or turning yellow.
