Good To Know

A Little Bit Diva

This botanical buddy won't just up and die on you if it isn't happy. It'll let you know it needs a bit of fuss and attention, which it will, periodically. Check the care details.

Bright, Indirect Light

Loves being in the spotlight. Thrives on attention. Just not direct sunlight, that’s where it draws the line. We’re glowing, not grilling.

Pet Friendly

The identified plant is listed as non-toxic to cats and dogs by the cited source. Discourage chewing: even non-toxic plants can cause stomach upset. This label does not mean edible or safe for every animal.

How not to kill your Bird’s Nest Fern (Asplenium)

We've created a personalised Grow Guide for your Bird’s Nest Fern (Asplenium). Just follow this easy guide and you & your new leafy mate will be loving life together!

Light: Indirect

Choose a bright position with filtered or indirect light. Protect from harsh direct summer sun. Only use lower light where the individual plant’s care profile says it is tolerated.

Watering: Regular

Check regularly and keep the root compost lightly moist for plants that need steady moisture. Drain excess water and avoid waterlogging. Follow the individual plant’s care profile.

Humidity: High

Keep away from drying radiators. Where this plant benefits from higher humidity, use a humidifier or suitable room conditions with ventilation. Routine misting is not a substitute for lasting humidity.
