Product Name: Pteris Mayi (P12c)
Pteris Mayi, commonly known as May's Brake or May's Lace Fern, is a species of fern that belongs to the Pteridaceae family. This fern is native to tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia, including countries like India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand, and Malaysia.
Pteris Mayi has attractive, pinnately compound fronds that are lance-shaped and feathery in appearance. The individual leaflets are narrow and elongated, with a delicate and lacy texture. The overall appearance of the fronds gives the plant a graceful and airy look.
Regularly remove any dead or yellowing fronds to promote healthy growth and maintain the plant's appearance. Pteris Mayi can be propagated through spores, which are produced on the undersides of mature fronds. To propagate, collect mature fronds with spores, place them in a plastic bag to allow the spores to drop, and then sow the spores on a suitable germination medium. This process requires patience, as fern spore propagation can be slow.
Pteris Mayi is prized for its delicate and lacy fronds, making it an appealing choice for indoor fern enthusiasts. With proper care and attention to its specific needs, you can enjoy the elegance of May's Lace Fern in your home or garden.
