# hi everyone! this is my birds nest fern that ive had for about 8…

_Posted by Elysse on 2023-09-26_

hi everyone! this is my birds nest fern that ive had for about 8 months, and I moved from San Antonio to a smaller town in northeast Texas. During the move, the fronds starting wilting like spinach and i got very worried! i tried not to freak out and over or under water it, or give it too much or too little sun in hopes of "fixing it fast". so i just let it do its thing and where it wilted eventually turned brittle and brown. does anyone know why, and what i can do to help it? should i just trim those pieces off or leave them alone?

thank you!!
