Platycerium grande, also known as the giant staghorn fern, is a type of epiphytic fern found in the Philippines. It is endemic to the island of Mindanao and is highly sought after as an ornamental plant. Due to overcollection and difficulty in germination, in vitro techniques are used to mass produce this species. It is categorized as critically endangered by the local government.
