Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Will look best mounted... and even better if you can find its naturally occurring symbiont Platycerium madagascariense ...and pair them up as shown in the photo. Otherwise select a wood basket when big enough. Till then, avoid any root disturbance. Even mature plants with many backbulbs have been killed by injury to roots or rhizome. Resist dividing.
Comments: Parent plant: Large plant.
