I’m your go-to if you want a plant that’s as stunning as it is easy to care for, with my lush, nest-like fronds – I can add something unique to your home.
Add the Asplenium Antiquum, also known as the Bird’s Nest Fern, to your houseplant collection for an instant boost of fresh, vibrant greenery. British grown and full of character, this beautiful fern is known for its glossy, rippled fronds that grow from a distinctive nest-like centre, creating a wonderfully lush, tropical look.
Often spotted thriving in conservatories and greenhouses, Bird’s Nest Ferns can grow to an impressive size when given the right conditions. A relatively quick grower, it’s a rewarding plant to have at home – watch as fresh new leaves emerge from the centre and gradually unfurl into elegant, bright green fronds.
Its vibrant foliage brings life and texture to any room. Style it in a bright corner, add it to a bathroom or kitchen where it can enjoy a little extra humidity, or let it take pride of place on a table or plant stand.
The Bird’s Nest Fern loves bright, indirect light and regular watering to keep its foliage looking fresh and healthy. Better still, it’s pet-friendly, making it a brilliant choice for plant-loving homes with cats and dogs.
At The Little Botanical, we love plants that make an impact while being a joy to watch grow, and this British-grown Bird’s Nest Fern does exactly that. With its beautifully bright leaves, sculptural shape and jungle-inspired feel, it’s an effortless way to bring a little more nature into your home.
Care
Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy, allowing it to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. Provide a humid environment by misting the fronds regularly or popping this plant in your bathroom which can mimic its natural habitat.
Keep out of draughts and away from radiators.
Place it in medium to bright indirect sunlight, avoiding direct exposure to direct sunlight.
