Water requirements:
Heart ferns like their soil to dry out a bit between watering. The leaves should spring right back up again if left unwatered for too long a stretch.
Care tips:
Prune regularly by trimming leggy stems to encourage new growth, if you do so desire.
Common issues:
Why does my Heart-leaf fern have brown tips OR Why does my Heart-leaf fern have fungus gnats flying around its soil
Not to worry! Just reduce your watering schedule and you shouldn't see any more brown forming on the leaves. You do not have to remove leaves that have brown tips or edges. Fungus gnats (which look like fruit flies) also go away when watering is reduced.
Why is my Heart-leaf fern crispy
Crispy leaves and stems indicate that your plant needs more water and/or humidity. Try placing your fern in the bathroom, or spray it with some water twice a day. Water about once every 7-10 days.
