Plant Features

Living Lace™ Hurricane Japanese Bird's Nest Fern (Asplenium antiquum), a plant admired for its distinctive shape and broad, strap-like leaves. The unique formation of glossy, green leaves, spreading upward and outward, forms a rosette with a nest-like center, giving this fern its common name. In its natural environment, this plant ingeniously collects water and organic matter in its 'nest' for absorption. While its wild counterparts may grow larger, this cultivated variety typically remains under 2 feet tall when nurtured indoors. Add an enchanting touch of nature's design to your space with this striking fern.

Care Tips for Your Living Lace™ Hurricane Fern

Light: It prefers indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
Water: Keep evenly moist, but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. If a small pot, allow just the top to dry.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix.
Temperature: The ideal temperature range is 60-85°F (15-29°C).
Humidity: High humidity is preferred. Mist the leaves once a day or place the plant on a pebble tray with water if you have a dry environment.
Fertilization: Fertilize once per months during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer.
Pet Friendly: YES
Pests and Diseases: It is susceptible to mealybugs and spider mites. If you notice any pests, treat them with an insecticidal soap or neem oil.
Troubleshooting: If the leaves are turning yellow, it may be a sign of overwatering. Allow the soil to dry out more between waterings. If the leaves are curling up, it may be a sign of underwatering. Water the plant more frequently.
