Q.Shriveling Branches
Why would my Rabbit’s Foot Fern branches or leaves be shriveling up ? I’ve been missing it just a little every other day sometimes every day. The soil is lightly moist.

The soil it's in should be either sphagnum or peat moss, and it should drain very well. Don't let the plant sit in soggy planting medium; the water should drain all the way through. Your water may also contain elements that the plant doesn't like, so you may want to water it with bottled water. Finally, it could be developing a case of root rot if it's been getting too wet and not draining well enough. Check all the growing conditions in this article:
