Manferns requires bright, indirect light, consistent moisture without waterlogging, and thrives in warm, humid conditions similar to their natural rainforest habitat. Use a well-draining, fertile soil. Common challenges include root rot from overwatering and potential infestations of scale insects or spider mites. Seasonally, reduce watering in winter and ensure protection from temperature extremes. During active growth in spring and summer, manferns may benefit from increased humidity and more frequent watering.
