General Information and Care: Microgramma piloselloides is a miniature epiphytic fern well suited to terrarium culture. This species has small dark green leaves, measuring about 1â in length and ½â in width. Additionally, this is a great choice for a fern that you want to make a nice dense mat. It does not wander as much as other species but instead seems to prefer to spread slowly putting out tons of leaves. To have the best success with this species, it needs to be mounted.
