This exotic Araflora plant is a real must for all plant enthusiastics. Neotropical snakeferns (Microgramma, Polypodiaceae) are handsome, interesting and easily-grown additions to almost any plant collection. Many of the species have intricately-patterned leaf veins that resemble fanciful calligraphic scrolls or inked Art Noveau embellishments. They are unobtrusive and gracious bay window, sunroom and greenhouse guests that are very forgiving of minor cultivation errors. They are also fairly fast-growing; in a surprisingly short time span, most species can be grown to fill 6”/15 cm basket size from fairly small established starts.
