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. Fronds can also grow fairly large, up to 6" long and 4" across, and are shiny, resembling Selliguea ferns in juvennile stage. 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.
Offered are divisions, established in 4" pot
