Asplenium nidus is an epiphytic species of fern in the family Aspleniaceae, native to tropical southeastern Asia, eastern Australia, Hawaii, Polynesia, Christmas Island, India, and eastern Africa. It is known by the common names bird's-nest fern or simply nest fern. 

Please use for sowing of fern spores Jiffy 7 Peat Pellets, soak them in water and put in a plastic pot.

Sow the fern spores on the peat pellets.

Then put the plastic pot in a ziplock bag - with a pot size of 6 cm , a ziplock bag of size 12 x 17 cm is recommended . Fill in the ziplock bag as much tap water with a few drops of universal fertilizer, so that after the absorption of the substrate a few mm of water remain on the bottom.

Location: on the windowsill or in a small greenhouse in partial shade, daytime temperatures at about 77 F, somewhat lower at night at 68-72 F.

Soon you will see a fine green layer on the surface. From the prothallia the small fern plants will develop with high humidity.

price is for approximately 50 seeds
