Platycerium ridleyi 'Pakarang' is a highly sought-after and visually striking form of the rare species Platycerium ridleyi, known for its deeply lobed, coral-like fertile fronds and compact epiphytic growth. The 'Pakarang' variant is especially admired for its finely divided fronds that resemble branching antlers or underwater coral, giving it a truly exotic appearance. The shield fronds form a tight, layered base and often develop bright green, textured surfaces.
Native to Southeast Asia, this species prefers high humidity, warm temperatures, and filtered, indirect light. As a true epiphyte, it thrives best mounted on wood or in open baskets. Water frequently but allow for excellent air circulation to prevent rot. Platycerium ridleyi 'Pakarang' is a collector's gem—unusual, elegant, and full of tropical charm.
