Celebes "Like" - Platycerium Cultivar
Celebes "Like" - Platycerium Cultivar. Monday, June 15, 2009. I picked the sire up from Doug Eckel in March 2006. He called it "Celebes-Like". While this cultivar can take a little more sun than most, I recommend that you keep it in dappled shade or just morning light. The more sun the lighter the fertile fronds and shield fronds become.
