Trying to work out what would rejuvenate a very tired fern which has
suffered from our drought conditions. Looking for a plant or plants to
treat that might show improvement in a short time. Looking at following
rubrics

It would seem it might be worth while trying Ars as ferns are ??

Very creative thinking, Jean. Let us know how the fern does, OK? Fascinating. ) Rosemary

Ferns love shade and damp but with some humidity, they tend to go brown and
shrivelled under drought conditions. A lack of nutrients would also be
involved. So I would add

Heated, becoming >>
Wet and warm >>>
Skin, shrivelled

X-Ray, Sulfanilamide or Sol maybe

Thanks Rosemary. Thanks Joy. Sol could come in. Had not known about it
. Read your recent article. I presume X-ray covers the burning and
shrivelling. Do not know Sulphanilamide. . Unfortunately have not these
remedies available. Went to bed last night thinking of Phos Ac as fern in
question seemed so apathetic and had suffered so much. I must research what
nutrients would be useful. Best wishes Jean

Jean,

You might try Hypericum, which I used years ago to rescue a fading fern.

Peace,
