The form of this plant makes it look like a living waterfall. My sister has one in Florida and it weighs hundreds of pounds. She thinks of it more as a friend than a plant.
Artist Reply: Thank you so much, David! This fern weighs hundreds of pounds; it is on a cable it is so heavy. And it is in Florida too....at my condo. I think when you nurture and care for this, it does become your friend. :) I appreciate your input. Hugs, Sharon
