Editing Platycerium (section)

==Cultivation==
The species ''[[Platycerium bifurcatum]]'' and ''[[Platycerium superbum]]'' are commonly cultivated as [[ornamental plant]]s. These oddly shaped ferns grow on trees and rocks and can be found in [[gardens]], especially [[tropical garden]]s.

Staghorns can be [[plant propagation|propagated]] by [[spores]] produced on the underside of the fertile fronds. Colonial ''Platycerium'' can also be vegetatively propagated by carefully dividing large healthy ones into smaller, separate plants. These new plants can then be attached to board mounts or be strapped to trees until they take to the tree themselves.

A mature staghorn can grow more than {{convert|1|m|ft}} wide.
