Planto & Tarev, Thanks for the advice and info on avoiding move-in & out frequently. I just thought when they have sun kiss they seem revive a bit, not knowing it should be done in the spring time.

Hi Cheryl, You have such great habitat for your nice ferns. The two BF I bought about two months ago looked just like the ones in your happy habitat but only bigger and fuller. Yet I wouldn't show my pic now cause they look like your dull one only more dark fronds and much less stem/branches (trimmed off). If your dull one wants more water, then maybe I should treat mine the same? Anyway I'll be careful and observe closely. Oh, I didn't thought your zone 9a stay such a different condition from our zone 9b (at least big difference in humidity because near gulf vs dry inland). I think it plays a critical role for growing BF. The local nursery I bought BF from has big GH to grow such gorgeous ferns and other plants. But I don't and guess that's my ignorance at start. But thanks for sharing your nice fern pic.
If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
