If you choose to remove the plant from the tree fern, you could probably do it quite easily. Potting the tree fern piece in sphagnum should be fine. I checked my own plant which is sitting in a plastic tray and it has rooted onto the plastic!!!!

Good to hear silken! I too will be growing it on the cooler side. Nights will be around 55 in the summer, cooler in the winter.
