Complete Care Guide

Light Requirements
  • Bright, indirect light promotes healthy frond development and glossy appearance
  • East or north-facing windows provide ideal growing conditions
  • Tolerates lower light better than many houseplants
  • Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the large fronds
  • Perfect for naturally lit bathrooms and bright offices
Watering Instructions
  • Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged to support large frond growth
  • Water when top inch of soil feels slightly dry
  • Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater when possible
  • Water around the edges, avoiding the central crown
  • Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot
Humidity & Temperature
  • Moderate to high humidity: 40-60% for optimal frond health and glossy appearance
  • Temperature range: 65-80°F (18-27°C) with consistent warmth
  • Thrives in naturally humid bathrooms and kitchens
  • Use humidity trays or room humidifiers for dry environments
  • Avoid cold drafts, heating vents, and sudden temperature changes
Potting & Fertilizing
  • Use well-draining, chunky potting mix that mimics epiphytic growing conditions
  • Add orchid bark or perlite for extra drainage and aeration
  • Feed monthly during growing season with diluted liquid fertilizer
  • Repot every 2-3 years or when roots become crowded
  • Choose heavy, stable pots to support large frond development
Air Purification & Maintenance
  • Excellent air purifier removing formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene from indoor air
  • Large frond surface area maximizes air-cleaning benefits
  • Remove brown or damaged fronds at the base with clean scissors
  • Wipe glossy fronds gently with damp cloth to maintain their lustrous appearance
  • Never cut the growing tip - new fronds emerge from the center only

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Bird's Nest Ferns different from other ferns?
Unlike typical ferns with divided, lacy fronds, Bird's Nest Ferns have large, undivided, glossy leaves that emerge in a rosette pattern. This unique structure creates a completely different aesthetic - more architectural and modern - while being easier to care for than many delicate ferns.
How large will the fronds actually get?
Indoor Bird's Nest Fern fronds can reach 2-4 feet long and 6-8 inches wide when mature, creating an impressive display. The large size, combined with the glossy finish and nest-like arrangement, makes them stunning statement plants for larger spaces.
Why is my fern called an epiphyte?
In nature, Bird's Nest Ferns grow on tree branches and rocks rather than in soil, collecting nutrients from debris that falls into their "nest." This epiphytic nature means they prefer chunky, well-draining potting mixes and don't like to stay too wet.
Is this plant safe around pets and children?
Absolutely! Asplenium ferns are completely non-toxic to cats, dogs, and humans, making them perfect worry-free choices for families who want to enjoy their stunning large glossy fronds and air-purifying benefits safely throughout their home.
Why are my frond tips turning brown?
Brown frond tips usually indicate low humidity, water quality issues, or underwatering. Increase humidity around the plant, use filtered or distilled water, and maintain consistent soil moisture. The large fronds are sensitive to these environmental factors but respond well to proper care.

Polarized sunglasses are just what I needed
Color: Tortoise Frame / Mirror Pink Lens
I really like these sunglasses. They are polarized and work great. They fit well and don't fall off when I bend over, which is important. They are light on my face and don't make marks or pressure on my nose. The color is perfect and they are really cute. They are a great value, well worth it. The cleaning cloth and bag to keep them in are a bonus. Very comfortable!

Just buy them. There is nothing not to love!
Color: Beige Tortoise Frame / Brown Gradient Lens, Color: Beige Tortoise Frame / Brown Gradient Lens
I've had these for a year or two now and came back and ordered three more. I wear these daily because they are so comfortable and cute. A lot of sunglasses give me headaches either they are too tight or too heavy, these never do. They don't catch in your hair if you put them on your head. They don't slide down your nose when you sweat or move your head. The beige tortoiseshell is the prettiest most flattering color ever. I'm a dark winter and I struggle to find cute sunglasses other than black. So many are brown warm colors the beige violet tortoiseshell is very cool and flattering for my cool toned gals. I have a pretty normal size head and these are just a hint of oversized but in a good way. I have an oval face that leans long oval or slight heart and these are seriously flattering. I have so many photos in them they always look good. I'm going to try the all plastic version too but I honestly love the thin metal arms. Just buy these it's such a good buy and brand. I literally donated other pairs because I don't wear them anymore after discovering these. I bought obviously the beige tortoiseshell, black with gold, and the cherry. Debating on the green. My only wish is more color options. I'd love more silver arm options. Thanks WMP for these!

Cute but wide
Color: Tortoise Frame/Brown Lens
cute sunglasses that look nice on but are a little wide for my more narrow face. They do fit well enough for me to wear, it’s just they’d definitely fall off if I lean down in them. I think I’m going to keep them though. Construction wise, they are nice, very light which makes them more comfortable and the tortoise color is pretty. Overall nice sunglasses for the price.

Perfect shades
Color: Tortoise Frame/Brown Lens
I love these sunglasses! I have a small face, and I find that these fit perfectly! They are stylish, fun and I don't have a problem of them sliding down my nose.
