It is not pet safe. Mildly toxic to humans and more dangerous to cats/dogs

The plant provided is a species of Heptapleurum arboricola, which is commonly known as the Staghorn fern. The plant appears to be healthy, but there is a problem with the way it is being cared for. Advice to fix it: 1. The plant is pot-bound, meaning that it has grown beyond the size of its pot and is now restricted by the size of the container. It needs to be repotted into a larger container with fresh soil. 2. The plant is not getting enough sunlight. It needs at least 5 hours of direct sunlight per day to thrive. Consider moving it to a sunnier location or using grow lights to supplement the sunlight. 3. The plant is not getting enough water. Ferns in general need consistently moist soil, but not waterlogged. Make sure to water the plant regularly and allow the soil to dry out between waterings. 4. The plant is not getting enough nutrients. Ferns require a balanced fertilizer that is high in potassium and low in nitrogen. Use a fern fertilizer specifically formulated for this purpose. Overall, the plant appears to be in good health but needs better care to thrive. By providing it with proper light, water, and nutrition, it can continue to grow and flourish.
