Complete Care Guide
Light Requirements ▼
- Bright, indirect light promotes healthy frond development and glossy appearance
- East or north-facing windows provide ideal growing conditions
- Tolerates lower light better than many houseplants
- Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the large fronds
- Perfect for naturally lit bathrooms and bright offices
Watering Instructions ▼
- Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged to support large frond growth
- Water when top inch of soil feels slightly dry
- Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater when possible
- Water around the edges, avoiding the central crown
- Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot
Humidity & Temperature ▼
- Moderate to high humidity: 40-60% for optimal frond health and glossy appearance
- Temperature range: 65-80°F (18-27°C) with consistent warmth
- Thrives in naturally humid bathrooms and kitchens
- Use humidity trays or room humidifiers for dry environments
- Avoid cold drafts, heating vents, and sudden temperature changes
Potting & Fertilizing ▼
- Use well-draining, chunky potting mix that mimics epiphytic growing conditions
- Add orchid bark or perlite for extra drainage and aeration
- Feed monthly during growing season with diluted liquid fertilizer
- Repot every 2-3 years or when roots become crowded
- Choose heavy, stable pots to support large frond development
Air Purification & Maintenance ▼
- Excellent air purifier removing formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene from indoor air
- Large frond surface area maximizes air-cleaning benefits
- Remove brown or damaged fronds at the base with clean scissors
- Wipe glossy fronds gently with damp cloth to maintain their lustrous appearance
- Never cut the growing tip - new fronds emerge from the center only

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Bird's Nest Ferns different from other ferns?
Unlike typical ferns with divided, lacy fronds, Bird's Nest Ferns have large, undivided, glossy leaves that emerge in a rosette pattern. This unique structure creates a completely different aesthetic - more architectural and modern - while being easier to care for than many delicate ferns.
How large will the fronds actually get?
Indoor Bird's Nest Fern fronds can reach 2-4 feet long and 6-8 inches wide when mature, creating an impressive display. The large size, combined with the glossy finish and nest-like arrangement, makes them stunning statement plants for larger spaces.
Why is my fern called an epiphyte?
In nature, Bird's Nest Ferns grow on tree branches and rocks rather than in soil, collecting nutrients from debris that falls into their "nest." This epiphytic nature means they prefer chunky, well-draining potting mixes and don't like to stay too wet.
Is this plant safe around pets and children?
Absolutely! Asplenium ferns are completely non-toxic to cats, dogs, and humans, making them perfect worry-free choices for families who want to enjoy their stunning large glossy fronds and air-purifying benefits safely throughout their home.
Why are my frond tips turning brown?
Brown frond tips usually indicate low humidity, water quality issues, or underwatering. Increase humidity around the plant, use filtered or distilled water, and maintain consistent soil moisture. The large fronds are sensitive to these environmental factors but respond well to proper care.

Feels good, smells not so good.
Scent: Lavender, Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My favorite lavender hand cream doubled in price, so I looked for an alternative and settled on this one. JR Watkins is a well-established name with a reputation for quality. The cream is nice, but I'm not fond of the scent. There are many different kinds of lavender, and this one is not my favorite.

True Lavender Scent
Scent: Lavender, Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Good quality cream. Nice fragrance - true lavender scent. Non-greasy. I like the flip top cap - easy to use and handy in the car.

Absolutely love this hand cream!
Scent: Lemon Cream, Size: 3.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have really dry skin, partly because I take a chemo med for autoimmune issues that really dehydrated me no matter how much water I drink. Other lotions I bought were either too greasy and just sat on the surface of my skin OR simply weren’t hydrating enough. But this hand cream is my absolute favorite now. It is super moisturizing, but is also fully absorbed by my skin very quickly. It’s honestly impressive. There was a nearly immediate, extremely noticeable difference in the condition of my skin after I started using this.
This lotion even seemed to solve a related issue I was having where my dead skin cells just refused to be shed, no matter how much I scrubbed in the shower or how much of my normal body lotion I applied. Sorry if it’s TMI, but literally minutes after applying this for the first time on my arms, I was able to basically just wipe off that dead layer of my skin, revealing much softer and more supple skin underneath. This is an issue that has been plaguing me for over a year that was seemingly solved in one day.
Additionally, I find that the scent is very pleasant. It weirdly reminds me of Froot Loops at first, but in the best way possible. It’s just got that nice citrus-forward, sweet fragrance, and as it dries down the scent gets mellower and more creamy as the lemon settles into the background. It’s definitely got a gourmand scent imo, but it’s not cloyingly sweet or artificial. It just genuinely smells like madeleines with lemon curd or something.
I think the Shea butter is largely responsible for the creamy, vanilla-like scent that develops after a couple minutes. It’s very nice, I find myself smelling my hands for like an hour after I apply it because it’s just so delicious! It doesn’t have a strong throw at all once absorbed, the scent fades to only be detectable if someone is inches from your skin, so it hopefully shouldn’t annoy people around you unless they are severely intolerant to fragrance.

I would not recommend
Scent: Coconut, Size: 3.3 Ounce (Pack of 3)
First problem…the product description says “scent coconut” which is a false description. I would describe the scent as “medicinal” and of course reminds me of being in a hospital. Second problem…a reviewer called this item non greasy. This product is very greasy/oily and is slow to absorb. The good thing about this item is that its effective for dry skin.
Having tried a couple dozen hand creams, my top 3 in ascending order are…
3. Okeffees working hands. Unscented . If you’re working outside, landscaping, etc, this is excellent.
2. Ahava. Strong masculine scent (musky). Works great. Not greasy or oily. Fast drying. The only negatives are: it’s not always in stock, it’s expensive.
1. Jack Black hand healer. Slight scent from eucalyptus (smells similar to menthol). Works great. Not greasy. Fast drying. It’s expensive however significantly less expensive than Ahava. It’s also much easier to find in stock.
