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.

Strong memory foam smell and more memory foam needed.
Color: White, Size: King(pack of 2)
My husband and I both think these pillows are very comfortable! Which for me is really great, since I have been trying to find a comfortable pillow for several years without success, until now. Our only complaint is the strong chemical smell of the memory foam filling. When they arrived, I opened them up and let them air for 48 hours and fluffed them in the dryer per the instructions. They still had a strong odor, so I removed the zippered covers, washed and air dryed them over night. I hoped between that and letting the thin cloth sack containing the memory foam, air out another night, the smell would be gone, but it wasn't. We decided to sleep on them anyway. UPDATE: We have been sleeping on them now for 9 nights and the smell is finally lessening. The initial fluff the pillows had from putting them in the dryer is now gone and we are wishing more memory foam had came with them. We both started out using all the foam they came with, but after sleeping on them for 9 nights, they have flattened. I re-fluff them with my hands every morning when I make the bed, but it doesn't last long. We wish they had come with more memory foam, so they could be more supportive.

heavenly.

UGH, i'm so obsessed with these pillows!! they're so comfortable, adjustable, AND perfect in general. they're so fluffy when you get them, but you can take out as much of the memory foam as you'd want. what i really like about these pillows is, the ability to unzip the pillow & wash when desired (please read the instructions!) 💫. i sleep a lottt better compared to my other pillows, i highly recommend to get you some of these 🙂‍↕️✨✨. i'm not sure about a "cooling effect" since i have a pillow case over them, but they stay a neutral temperature where it's comfortable. i'm definitely going to back soon to buy the body pillow and a case (or two!) to revive old pillows (which i also love!). they come in a pair, so it's HIGHLY worth it, get them rnnn!!

Shocked
Color: White, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
I'm really bougie when it comes to pillows. I've never spent less than $50 on a pillow. I'm a side sleeper and like firm support, but also want something soft. I almost ordered the really pricey pillows on Amazon, but was turned off by all the odor complaints. I needed something quick to at least hold me over until I could get exactly what I want, so I took a shot with this pillow with the plan of it being a temporary fix. However, this pillow turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. The first time I laid on it I was skeptical. It had support, but felt like it may have been too soft. It took a bit to get accustomed to, but by the second night I knew this is the pillow. No chemical odors, it's quality at a low cost. I figured this pillow would've been quickly replaced and put into the leg pillow rotation, but it is shockingly a really great pillow. It is not lumpy, stays way cooler than standard or shredded memory foam and is comfy. Hopefully it holds up for a long time. I've paid triple what these 2 pillows cost for a single pillow that isn't as good.

These pillows are amazing! They are huge and plush but you can change that if you prefer. I really like that the outside cover can be washed and is also filled. It held up great in the washer and dryer. I just followed the directions on the tag. Great price for the quality and look very nice and fluffed on the bed.
