About
“A Real Fern Guy is local small business - a husband-and-wife team that has been growing unusual indoor and outdoor plants and artistically mounted Staghorn and Elkhorn ferns for over 40 years. Paul is a Master Naturalist, Master Gardener, organic farmer and a cultivator extraordinaire! Lisa established her green thumb at his side, and they aim to share their combined knowledge and love of nature with all of greater Jacksonville! The air ferns, epiphytes, or platycerium bifurcaum, are unique specimens to learn about and own, providing a unique addition to any plant lovers’ collection. A Real Fern Guy likes to have fun, and believes you can't buy happiness, but you can buy plants, and that's pretty much the same thing !!!”.
We are a local Jacksonville certified Nursery on our 1/2 acre property with 2 greenhouses growing and propagating all our own plants, bromeliads, ground ferns varieties, and epiphytes on reclaimed wood and hanging moss baskets.
