How to Grow and Care for Cyathophorum

The cyathophorum is an easy-to-care-for plant with moderate water and light needs. It thrives best in indirect light, avoiding direct sun exposure that could scorch its leaves. A unique care point for cyathophorum is its preference for high humidity environments, which can be achieved using a humidifier or misting regularly. Additionally, cyathophorum requires soil that retains some moisture but also drains well to prevent root rot.

Types of Cyathophorum

Quill moss

Due to its deceptively fern-like appearance and leafy green fronds, Cyathophorum bulbosum is sometimes identified by the common name of "False Fern Moss." However, in its native range of Australia, there are no other native plants that look similar to the quill moss, reducing the chance of confusion. While most fronds are singular, forked or split fronds are occasionally seen as well.
