Adiantum raddianum 'Fritz Lüthi
Adiantum raddianum ‘Fritz Lüthi

One of the more popular maidenhair fern varieties Adiantum raddianum ‘Fritz Lüthi’ comes in two forms, one with a blue hue to the foliage.

This is a fern that will grow well indoors, or perhaps in a conservatory as it does appreciate good humidity.

Growing naturally in damp areas, it can be grown outdoors in a protected position, shade and moisture are required.

The fronds are triangular in shape, the foliage a mid green and the stems an attractive contrasting black.

Care

Indoors use a potting mix that is rich with organic material. Try a saucer of water with pebbles in it to sit the pot on to increase humidity.
Fertilise from spring through summer with a liquid seaweed fertiliser.

A position in good filtered light is best, and keep the plant away from heating and air-conditioning outlets.

Repot every 2- 3 years as the growing medium begins to break down. The best time to repot is in spring.
