Polystichum tsussimense is a pretty little fern. If you have a steamy, frequently used bathroom with room for a new plant, Polystichum tsussimense will grow happily here. Although, for best results I’ve found Polystichum tsussimense is more successfully grown as a bottle garden, terrarium, or vivarium plant. This is an incredibly versatile fern – you don’t have to grow it indoors – Polystichum tsussimense also flourishes outside in the garden.
