Description

The ‘Floating Fern’ is a water plant that floats on the surface with a cluster of dense leaves. These leaves have a wavy edge and come in egg-shaped to triangular shapes, sometimes with 3 to 5 lobes. One interesting feature is that the plant can easily reproduce by forming plantlets on its leaves. Additionally, its feathery roots extend about 8 or 9 inches into the water, serving as a spawning ground for fish and a hiding spot for their fry.

This table shows the estimated shipping weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time. For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table. This applies to pick-ups a well as shipping.
