Botrychium virginianum aka Common Grape Fern

Caring for Common Grape Fern is a breeze, as it is highly adaptable and forgiving to minor neglect.

Common Grape Fern’s native range is N. Europe, E. Asia. N. America and S. America.

Common Grape Fern should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Common Grape Fern loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Common Grape Fern prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

The Common Grape Fern grows at a slow pace and doesn't require any supplementary fertilizers. By renewing its potting soil once a year, it should receive enough nourishment. Remember, plants obtain their energy from sunlight, not fertilizers.
