I think it’s some kind of fern, I thought it looked cool and decided to rescue it. But I can’t find what I need to provide for this specific plant. Any advice would be helpful :)

It looks like a fern from what I can see. There are a huge variety out there right now. If you could show center growth might be able to make a better guess.

I wanted to see if it had “feet”. It could possibly be one of the many footed ferns. They are one of the easiest ferns. I don’t believe it is a Golden polypody- Phlebodium aureum, or blue star fern since it is different than mine. Here are photos of footed ferns with large leaves that I have. Neither had noticeable feet when first purchased.

The first two photos are of the blue star.

Next is the kangaroo paw fern.

This is what a stag horn fern looks like.

They have a shield the fronds grow out of

the shield is usually bluish gray, but I repotted mine and exposed it to too much dirt and water.

Hope this gives you some ideas to search. All of these varieties are pretty tough as ferns go.
