We can't say enough good things about this species of fern; its low maintenance requirements are perfect for those who tend to neglect their plants and its ability to thrive in low lit areas of your home, such as a living room, is aesthetically satisfying. Phlebodium aureum has been named and renamed over time. You may know it commonly as Blue Star Fern, Aureum gold-although there's nothing gold about it-or by its larger species name, Polypodium. Phlebodium aureum is an epiphytic fern or a fern that grows on the surface of a host and derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, water, or from the debris around it.
