@SleekNerveplant I think Orwell is NotOrwell at the moment. Just wondering, is there much humidity where you place your fern? It could be thay where you are putting it is too drying or an issue with your watering.
@Seymour a friend also recommended a humidifier! I think that might be it! I will definitely try that, thank you!
@SleekNerveplant Because of where they come from, ferns tend to prefer a cool temperature and a high level of moisture in the air (humidity). If there is some indirect light or growlight available, a bathroom is an ideal place for them, for instance. They like, when they are indoors, plenty of bright, indirect light (not direct light) as exposure to direct sun will burn their delicate foliage, making it dry and brittle and browning the edges. So maybe make a few changes and it should come good you can cut off the dead or brown foliage if you like. Hope this helps
