Something's Growing

Just not sure what. Is this normal? Growing from the Java Fern leaves.

look like roots from a baby plant growing off the parent plant

You buried java fern!!!, remove it from the substrate

You are the proud owner of a baby java fern! Congratulations. They tend to grow roots and/or baby plants in really strange places.

By the way, corypower is right. It will do better if you remove the root from the substrate and attach it to something hard. (I like to either use super glue or steal one of my daughter's little tiny pony-tail rubberbands) Eventually its roots will attach to the hardscape. That's how they grow naturally.

I concur, it’s just roots. A good sign for a Java fern.

Yes, just leave it and when it is bigger it should come off by itself.

Maybe it is happy where it is, it is growing new plants. Don't panic. You maybe on the brink of a new discovery.

Java fern is supposed to be grown out of substrate one wood not in the ground if not it would rot and die,what’s there to discover it’s already been shown to rot in substrate

Do you really believe that every Java fern in nature is super glued to a piece of drift wood. This plant is happy, so leave it alone.

It’s not about the wood it’s about being out of substrate and not rotting, and can you see the rhizome?,how do you know it’s not rotting?
