Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Davallia tyermannii, commonly known as Rabbit's Foot Fern, is an evergreen fern native to regions including southern China, northern Myanmar, and Taiwan. This fern is renowned for its distinctive, furry, white rhizomes that resemble a rabbit's foot, which creep over the soil surface and often dangle over the edges of containers, adding a unique textural element to its appearance. The fronds are finely divided, triangular, and display a vibrant green hue, contributing to its lush and delicate aesthetic. Typically, the plant reaches a height and width of approximately 30 to 60 cm, making it an excellent choice for indoor cultivation in pots or hanging baskets, where its cascading rhizomes can be showcased.

In Perth's climate, Rabbit's Foot Fern thrives indoors, preferring bright, indirect sunlight and high humidity levels. It is well-suited to bathrooms or kitchens where humidity is naturally higher. The fern prefers well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil and should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Regular misting can help maintain the necessary humidity levels. This fern is non-toxic to both humans and pets, making it a safe and attractive addition to households. Its unique rhizomes and delicate fronds make Davallia tyermannii a desirable plant for adding greenery and interest to indoor spaces.
