Actiniopteris australis Quart

This dainty Eyelash Fern may be small but it is eye-catching (pun intended), if only for its distinctive lacy, fluttery fronds. Its spread is only a bit bigger than it is tall, and would be attractive in the front of an indoor planter along with slightly taller plants, or keep it separate in its own pot. While it doesn't like soggy soil, it does prefer a higher humidity, so keep this fern away from heater vents, and mist it periodically.
Pro tip: if the leaves turn a dusky gray color, move the plant to a brighter environment - the Eyelash Fern does best in a well-lit room with indirect sun.
