My bird's nest fern recently endured some hardships. Moved to a new home with less ideal conditions, was absolutely pot bound and then roughly repotted 🥴 She's a trooper and I hope to see it make a comeback with big leaves again!

I just had to give mine a trim and move it because it wasn’t getting enough light. It’s already perked back up and it’s only been a day! I’m sure yours will improve soon!

Thanks! I knew something was up when giving it a grow light didn't elicit results 😵‍💫

I almost killed my maidenhair fern. If I can revive that thing then your birds nest fern will certainly survive!
