Asplenium nidus 'Avis', commonly known as the Bird's Nest Fern, is recognised for its broad, glossy fronds that emerge from a central rosette, creating the distinctive nest-like form that gives the plant its common name. Unlike many ferns with finely divided foliage, its undivided, arching fronds have gently rippled edges and a prominent dark midrib, giving the plant a bold, sculptural appearance. New fronds unfurl from the centre of the crown in tight coils before expanding into lush, vibrant foliage, gradually forming an elegant fountain-shaped canopy.
Habitat: Will grow 60-120cm indoors. Does best in a humid environment.
Light: Medium- bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight will burn the leaves.
Water: Keep the soil moist, but do not over-water. Like most plants, over-watering will cause root rot.
Soil: Will be happy in a bark/peat-based soil mixed with an orchid mix through it to help create a free-draining medium.
Fertiliser: Ferns do not require too much additional fertiliser, other than diluted amounts during growth periods. Too much fertiliser can damage your plant.
