In this video, I go over how to do an Easy DIY staghorn fern mount. This is my first experience owning and mounting a staghorn fern and if I can do it then you can mount one too! All the supplies I got locally from my hardware store even the fern itself. I go over some tips and tricks I learned from my process and how I plan on caring for the fern. I also show you where I decided to keep the fern.

I've really been enjoying your content lately! I've been subscribed since your early videos and It seems like you've really become more comfortable in front of the camera! Your personality is shining through now🤗 I know this happens with most KZfaqrs, but I don't always start watching at the beginning of their journey. It's so cool to watch that happen over time!💚

Aw thank you!! 🥺🥺 Sometimes I still get shy I think it’s just my personality but I feel more comfortable filming. Still trying to get used to the new camera too 🙈 I really appreciate you and I can’t believe you have watched from the beginning!! Thank you 🥺🥰🥰

Another learning experience and a unique way to appreciate a plant, like it a lot and you did a good job making the mount. I agree that fishing line would be a good choice. Another suggestion would be to use a live edge board to do this. I’ve been traveling through Alaska the last 2 weeks and have been observing the flora here like I do wherever I travel. Seen some beautiful trees that I’ve never seen before and that is always fun. Included are immense Sitka spruces over 10’ in diameter and some incredible, convoluted cedars that originate from the Himalayan Mountains. Staghorn fern is a new plant for me so thanks for the introduction.

Thank you so much! That would be a great option too most definitely! It’s doing really well so far and love that I made it haha. I feel like I want to do another one 🙈😂

Thanks for the tips, Melissa. 🎉 I might have used the little loops you used for the hanging for the thick wire. But hey,it came out well and I saw a broth reel and the plant looks great. I used an onion net bag to mount mine yet had no sphagnum moss. Going to redo from your instructions. Also, mine was a gift from a neighbor and was not in a pot. Thanks again. ✨🌱🌞

I bought two staghorn ferns at Lowe’s, a young plant and an older plant with shields a few months ago. The youngest one wasn’t a success, it started dropping its leaves so I unmounted it and repotted it, but I found out that the roots were wrapped in a black mesh and most of the roots were not in good health, still repotted it and hopefully it revives.

I have been researching this topic and enjoyed your video! My staghorn fern is in an 8 inch pot that I just bought at the grocery store last week. I haven't tried to mount it yet.

I've been wanting to do this, but I just don't have a good place to mount it in my house. :( I'd have to provide it with some supplemental light I think. Plant wall art is just so lovely! I think you did a great job!

Hi same here I am not sure if it would help to put it in a shadow spot in the flat but I really like how it looks - but I think I would prefer some piece of wood from a tree

@dinacisneros8616 2 жыл бұрын

You did a great job! I think I would consider painting the screws brown. It will grow and hide the screws with time anyway.

I just received a stag fern as a gift......this is all new to me!!! Question: Would a stag horn fern be able to exist on a moss pole?

@Jameson77777 2 жыл бұрын

A few days after you posted the video where you found these staghorn ferns, I found them as well at my local lowes. I bought 4 & I even found a large one on clearance which I also bought lol. I plan on displaying them on a pegboard from Ikea.

Oh nice! That would look amazing! 😍 I think they’re so cute! I’m excited to have it and watch it grow for me! Have fun mounting yours on the pegboard when you go to do it! 🙏🏼🤗

Oh Melissa! I think it turned out great! I recently mounted several, and even sold a few. You did an awesome job! I'll send you a pic on instagram of the one I've kept. My moss was falling everywhere too at 1st.

Haha nice!! It was fun to do! It makes me want to do a more mature one on a plank now especially since I have extra cedar wood lol. I’ll look out for your message! 💚
