Mankyua is a fern with a distinctive growth pattern, flourishing in the damp, shaded forests of its native habitat. It features broad, green fronds that uniquely unroll from a central rosette, giving it a sculptural appeal. This fern thrives in moist, humus-rich soil, and its design aids in both moisture retention and spore dispersal, critical for its reproduction in a forest ecosystem.
Propagation:
To propagate mankyua, utilize spore sowing with a focus on maintaining humidity, indirect light, and warmth. Sterilize all materials to avoid contamination. Steps include collecting spores, sowing on sterilized mix, covering for humidity, providing warmth, keeping soil moist, and transplanting once established.
