Houseplants
Crispy Wave Fern - Asplenium nidus
Locate me in indirect light to shady spaces. This means I can tolerate shadier areas of your home, or nearer windows but avoiding direct sunlight. Happiest in rooms with temperatures 15º or higher.
Feed me once a month during the growing season of spring and summer with a good quality, general-purpose liquid houseplant feed.
Repot in the spring (but only if plant becomes rootbound) to a grow pot one to two inches larger than the current pot, using a peat-free, general-purpose houseplant compost.
Water me when the top two inches of my compost feels dry. I enjoy humid conditions so rooms like bathrooms make ideal homes. Reduce watering in winter months.
description
The Crispy Wave Fern is a tropical beauty with dramatic fronds that add texture and movement to any indoor space. I'm a versatile plant that's happy in both indirect light and shady locations in your home, and I'm easy to look after.
Pets: Non toxic but can cause stomach discomfort if eaten in volume.
REPOTTING
- Repot in the spring (but only if plant becomes rootbound) to a grow pot one to two inches larger than the current pot.
- use a peat-free, general-purpose houseplant compost.
PLANT CARE
- Prune Crispy Wave Fern fronds and remove old, brown leaves to encourage healthy growth.
VERVE RECOMMENDS
- Avoid overwatering, soggy soil can quickly cause root rot.
- Water from the base, as I do not enjoy getting my leaves wet.
