Asplenium nidus Crispy Wave - Bird's Nest Fern - vibrant, lush, fern easy care i

£8.50Price

This cultivar has such fresh green, wavy fronds it makes you refreshed just to look at it. These rise straight upwards from a neat rosette and it is this sinuous outline which makes it such a sculptural plant. Easy to look after, Asplenium ‘Crispy Wave’, can be a very long lived plant and will, if happy, eventually become as large as 1.5 metres high and 1 metre across. It enjoys humidity and would be well suited to a steamy bathroom or kitchen.

This is an evergreen fern which forms a striking rosette of bright green sword-shaped blades with highly sinuate, ruffled wavy margins and an obvious dark purplish-black midrib. This is a cultivar of Asplenium Nidus an epiphytic (lives on trees) species of fern in the family Aspleniaceae. These plants are native to tropical south-eastern Asia, eastern Australia, Hawaii, Polynesia and the Christmas Islands, as well as India, and eastern Africa. It is commonly referred to as a Bird's Nest Fern or simply nest fern with the word ‘nidus’ meaning a place in which something develops or is fostered. This plant is supplied in a recyclable 6cm pot packed in compostable/recyclable packing and will come with comprehensive care instructions based on our experience of caring for this plant in our UK home.

  • Positioning and Care Needs

    This is an epiphytic plant (grows on evergreen trees) so as you would imagine requires a spot in good but indirect light. It requires fairly regular watering during the growing season but, like most epiphytes, has some tolerance for drying out.  Further comprehensive care instructions will be provided with your plant.
