How to grow bird's nest fern

Planting of Bird's Nest Fern

After growing for two to three years, the nest fern has grown in size and its roots have filled the pot frame. It can be removed from the pot. Some of the withered spore leaves and residual roots at the base can be removed, and the plant can be taken out and replanted in separate pots. The best potting soil is leaf mold or peat soil. When repotting in spring, it is best to add moss and leaf mold to the pot, along with some gravel.

Light and temperature

In summer, provide appropriate shade to avoid direct sunlight. Place it in a bright place indoors and do not keep it in a dark place for a long time. The suitable temperature for the growth of bird's nest fern is 22~27℃. When the temperature is lower in winter, it should be moved into the greenhouse and the temperature should be kept above 16℃. The minimum temperature cannot be lower than 5℃.

Watering and fertilizing

The summer is hot and humid, and the growth of new leaves requires higher amounts of water. Water more often and spray the leaves thoroughly to facilitate spore germination.
