Ken, great article! That was a beautiful piece! I have never grown Stags. They must be low moisture requirement plants to be able to grow like this. Sounds like my kind of houseplant, as I'm often forgetful when they are inside, lol. Enjoyed this!

Donna. I do appreciate your kind words.

Most epiphytic plants require about the same care/conditions as common houseplants. But, as in nature, they don't want constant moisture (what I call "wet-feet") and should be allowed to dry out before watering again. This is especially true when growing indoors and with fewer hours of sunlight and less intense sunlight in the fall and winter months. During the fall/winter months, when all of my plants are inside, they get misted 2-3X as often as they get watered. Over-watering or using moisture retentive "soil" is the main killer of epiphytic plants. There is absolutely nothing difficult about growing these plants, whether they are staghorn ferns, orchids, tillandsia, or bromeliads. Believe me, I don't do and don't know anything "magic" when growing them. If I can grow them, anyone can.
