Pteris Cretica 'Mayi'

 

Mayi Brake Fern

Ferns are some of the oldest varieties of plants still in existence today and they grow all over the world in differing shapes and sizes. This Pteris is better known by its common name of Ribbon Fern and it's a wonderful variety with long stalk fronds topped with variegated green and cream leaves. They can be found all over the world growing in a variety of locations. These plants love humidity; a shadier spot in a bright bathroom can be the perfect location, but humidity can be achieved anywhere in the house with a spray bottle to mist the leaves. The beautiful foliage of these ferns makes them a great houseplant for adding life and colour to any space
