Brown Leaf Edges
I have a Bamboo Zebra Fern, and I have been watering it regularly. I make sure to keep the soil moist, it gets bright indirect light from a Northern-facing window, which it is about 5 feet from.
I am noticing lots of the leaves are starting to look brown around the edges, whatβs causing this and how can I fix it?!

@SuperStarsedge misting should help. I donβt believe it could hurt. Even if you had a large plastic pitcher or glass bowl to use as a cover. It would purely be experimental to see if the edges stop from crisping/browning.
@SuperStarsedge I am not a big fern collector but this one I absolutely love. Itβs on my wishlist & my local plant store has super healthy ones for sale. It is a plant that I would want to place in my cabinet. I feel that ambient home conditions could possibly dry the fragile edges. If you have a dome cloche, perhaps this will elevate the humidity level for it.
@Rockrlee would this fern benefit from misting? Unfortunately, I donβt have a cabinet I can put this little one in
