Asplenium antiquum 'Crissie' is a striking cultivar of the Bird’s Nest Fern, admired for its gracefully arching fronds that split into deep, forked tips. Native to Japan and East Asia, this epiphytic fern thrives in warm, humid environments.
Distinctive Features:
- Deeply forked, bright green fronds with wavy margins.
- Forms a dense, vase-like rosette, giving a lush and tropical appearance.
- Thrives as an epiphyte but adapts well to potted conditions.
- Non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for animal-friendly homes.
- Excellent air-purifying qualities, helping to remove toxins from indoor air.
Care Tips:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but tolerates moderate shade.
- Water: Keep soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering; do not let water sit in the centre rosette.
- Humidity: High humidity is essential; mist regularly or place near a humidifier.
- Media: A well-draining, organic-rich potting mix is ideal.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18°C and 26°C; protect from cold drafts.
- Fertiliser: Feed with a diluted liquid fertiliser every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
- Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its container.
