A spectacular species rarely seen in cultivation, with strap, sward fronds in gray-green and densely covered with white hairs, especially when young. Undersides of the fronds are in red-brown with sori occur on the upper part near margins. The fronds can grow to 2 ft. long in suitable conditions. It spreads by very short stout rhizomes as if they absent that will make a nice tight clump and of course, become an impressive specimen.
Like many species of the genus, this species is a slow grower. Perform well in epiphytic mix, which contains high quality sphagnum, perlite and bark. Cold tolerance down to 5 Celsius degrees without visible damage.

This splendid Pyrrosia is a locally endemic species from Borneo. Although it looks similar to the common Pyrrosia lingua, undersides of the fronds are not tinted in red-brown hairs.

Despite few years in our cultivation, we still have never seen its spore yet.
Like other Pyrrosia, it is rather a slow grower and do not tolerate for cold weather as much as Pyrrosia lingua do (should not below 15 Celsius degrees). Does best in coarse, porous media and prefers lapse between watering. Best suit for basket culture.
