About Bird's Nest Fern (Asplenium nidus 'Victoria')
The Bird's Nest Fern is a striking fern with spear-shaped, glossy fronds that unfurl in a rosette from a central point, unlike the feathery fronds of most ferns. New leaves emerge from the centre of the rosette as the plant grows.
Growing Conditions
- Light: Bright, indirect light; protect from direct sun which scorches the fronds.
- Soil: Peat-based potting mix with added perlite for aeration.
- Humidity: Loves high humidity.
Placement
Well suited to bathrooms, kitchens, and other naturally humid indoor spots away from direct sun.
Care
- Watering: Keep the soil moist at all times, but not soggy - water around the edge of the rosette, not into the centre, to avoid rot.
- Fertilizer: Weak, diluted liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks from April to September.
- Repotting: Rarely needed - once every 1-2 years, since the roots are small; watch for the plant becoming unstable in its pot.
- Pruning: Remove any damaged or browning fronds at the base.
Note: This listing ships a young potted plant. Growth rate and mature size vary by light, care, and environment. Generally considered non-toxic and pet-safe.
