How to care for Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus
Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus loves as much sun as possible. The best spot for them is where they can see the sun during the majority of the day.
Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus likes the soil to be completely dry before the next watering. That can take about 4 weeks in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. wrinkly or soft leaves). Water a little more often in the warmer months.
Their humidity requirement is low, so do not mist Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus or put them in a terrarium.
Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus will like a bright, warm spot in your home, but avoid watering them too much. Be cautious when handling your Prickly Pear Cactus due to its glochids and spines; it's advisable to use gloves or wrap the segments in newspaper to avoid getting pricked.
While the Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus is not toxic, its sharp spines can pose a physical hazard to pets and humans alike. It's advisable to place this plant in areas where contact with pets and children can be avoided to prevent injuries from its spines..

How to care for Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern
Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.
Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern likes the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 2 weeks in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. droopy, floppy, or soft leaves). Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.
Staghorn ferns have two types of fronds: shield fronds and bifurcated (forked) fronds. The former is located at the base of the plant and grow flatly, often appearing dried out or dead (don't fall in to the temptation of removing them). The bifurcated fronds are what the plant gets its common name from, as their forked appearance is reminiscent of deer antlers. Do not over-fertilize as this can harm the plant. Remove any dead or dying fronds to maintain plant health and aesthetics. If growing on a board or in a basket, ensure that the mounting material is secure and provides adequate support for the weight of the mature plant.
You can feel comfortable having Elephant Ear Staghorn Fern around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants..
