Know before you buy
Yes, the Asplenium Nidus is non-toxic to both cats and dogs, making it a safe choice for households with curious pets.
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate fronds, or in low-light corners where growth may stall.
These ferns require consistent moisture and typically need to be watered twice weekly. Ensure the soil remains damp to the touch, but avoid letting the plant sit in standing water.
Crispy leaf tips are usually a sign of low humidity. To keep the foliage lush, consider placing the plant in a bathroom, using a humidifier, or grouping it with other plants to create a more humid microclimate.
Each plant is treated with organic, cold-pressed Neem Oil before shipping to help prevent pests and support the plant's overall health and vitality as it adjusts to your home.
This is a juvenile plant shipped in a 2-inch to 4-inch nursery pot. It is a slow-to-moderate grower that will gradually fill out its container as it matures.
