Just HAD to share this gorgeous birds nest fern that I’ve added to my small collection of house plants.

Any tips are appreciated!

It looks great!!

She’s gorgeous and very healthy. 🥰 I water around the base to avoid water directly into the central nest/rosette to prevent mold and rot. The new fronds are very fragile so I’m careful not to touch them. If you care about crispy brown leaf tips or edges, consider filtered water as it’s sensitive to chlorine.

I just brought one home this weekend. Thanks for the tips!
