Re: [APD] Java Fern

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

Tie it to something. It's not a rooted plant; it's a rock
clinger, tree hugger, an anything-suitably-wet-attacher. If
the leaves are kept wet, it can even be above the
waterline; like in the spray of a waterfall. The rhizome is
not happy underground. But tie it to a small rock or piece
of driftwood and you can achieve much the same visual
effect.
