- Botanical Name: Pteris cretica var albolineata
- Common Name(s): Albo-lineata, silver ribbon fern, Cretan Brake Fern, Cretan Fern
- Description: Native to Europe, Asia, and Africa, the Albo fern is the most common variant of the Pteris cretica species, with broad green leaflets and pale centers. Outdoors, the Albo fern can survive year round in subtropical climates such as California. Care is similar, if not easier, than other ferns, requiring indirect sunlight, humidity, and pruning. It can grow up to 1-2.5 feet.
Every plant ships as a young, well-rooted starter grown by our US nursery partners. Size and shape vary naturally, and photos show a mature example of the variety.
On arrival: unbox right away, rest the plant out of direct sun for a day or two, then water lightly. A few wilted or yellowed leaves after transit are normal.
Planting: pot up in a well-draining mix, or plant outdoors once frost risk has passed in your USDA zone. Each listing states zone, light and watering.
Safety: many ornamental plants are toxic if eaten. Keep them away from young children and pets unless the listing says the plant is edible.
Shipping
We ship to the 48 contiguous US states only - not Alaska, Hawaii, US territories, PO Boxes or internationally.
Orders ship from our US grower partners within 1 to 3 business days, with tracking by email within 48 hours, and most arrive 2 to 6 business days later.
Shipping is free on orders of $49 or more. Under $49 it is a flat $9.95.
Cold weather: from 1 November to 30 April every order ships with winter protection at our cost - a heat pack, plus an insulated liner or a faster service when the route needs one. If a hard freeze is forecast we may hold the order until it is safe to send.
