Zoo Med Naturalistic Flora Lace Fern is a life-like artificial plant designed to add soft fern-style foliage, privacy and visual complexity to reptile and amphibian enclosures.
Its fine leafy appearance works particularly well in tropical and forest-style vivariums, helping create a denser planted look without the maintenance requirements of a live fern.
Soft, Natural-Looking Fern Foliage
Zoo Med’s Naturalistic Flora range provides an easy way to create the appearance of lush tropical planting while remaining extremely low maintenance.
The Lace Fern can be positioned amongst cork, branches, backgrounds and leaf litter to soften hard enclosure features and introduce additional areas of greenery and cover.

Privacy & Shelter
The dense fern-style foliage helps break up open areas within the enclosure and creates additional visual barriers and sheltered spaces for animals to rest amongst or retreat behind.
Water Droplets After Misting
The water-resistant leaves provide surfaces where droplets can collect following misting. This can be particularly useful for species that naturally take water directly from foliage.
Secure Root Stake
A sturdy root stake pushes directly into the enclosure substrate, helping keep the Lace Fern securely positioned while still allowing it to be moved easily when changing the enclosure layout.
Easy to Maintain
As an artificial plant, Lace Fern provides lasting greenery without watering, pruning or specialist plant lighting. Its water-resistant construction also makes it practical for humid and regularly misted setups.
