The Birdsnest fern is an easy-to-grow and hardy fern. This plant has fronds that will grow up and out from the center, giving it a birdnest look! The shallow yet strong anchoring root system makes this fern an excellent option for mounting along the back wall but can also be planted in the soil along the floor of the enclosure! This sturdy fern is native throughout southeast Asia and Oceania!
The Birdnest fern isn't only a wonderful plant to place in an enclosure but also to have as a houseplant! This fern can be enjoyed either potted or mounted on a wooden backdrop! If planted in a pot we recommend using our Soiless Chunky Aroid Mix.
