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.

great for kids with dry skin!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
This ointment has been a great find for sensitive baby skin. We started using it for dry patches and mild eczema, and it made a noticeable difference within a few days. The texture is rich and soothing without feeling overly greasy, and it absorbs well enough that it doesn’t leave everything sticky. I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and made without steroids—perfect for everyday use, especially on delicate skin. We’ve used it on everything from dry cheeks to minor irritation, and it’s been consistently gentle and effective. The 2-pack is a nice bonus since we keep one at home and one in the diaper bag. A little goes a long way, so the jars last longer than expected. The only downside is the price—it’s a bit more expensive than some alternatives—but for the quality and peace of mind, it feels worth it. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this for parents looking for a reliable, gentle solution for dry or sensitive skin.

Only thing that worked! So thankful!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 8 Ounce
I can’t believe I’m going to do this, but I’m writing a review and a long one at that! My baby began having skin issues around 5weeks old. Which I believe was from washing her with Honest baby soap(but I believe any soap would have been a problem)- up until then I had only used a wash cloth and water. But that week I washed her twice with the soap and that weekend my son had back to back soccer games it was 90degeee weather and my baby got sweaty. Then after that her skin just seemed to have problem after problem! I didn’t know if it was heat rash, eczema, or baby acne or combination? So no more soap and returned to water and started putting breastmilk and tallow on her which really helped with the redness. but her skin still felt like sand paper and would easily get inflamed if warm or sweaty. Around 8weeks of age she started getting cradle cap behind and on her ears and her eyebrows, then mildly on her head ugh. And she was VERY itchy and would be itching her head all night. So I ordered MuStella shampoo and the Frida cradle cap scrubby and brush set. After 2-3 days my babies head had red bumps, very inflamed and still very itchy. It said to wash everyday and remove the scales but I just couldn’t keep doing that. I would slather tallow on my babies head after washing and I returned to just rinsing with water as that seemed to help. I would also gently use the comb because her hair would be crazy after applying cream to scalp. This also helped to further distribute the cream and clean out some dry flakes from scalp- no need to scrub with that scrubber. But she was still itchy. So that’s when I decided to add the colloidal oatmeal for the sleepless nights itching- which this has 1% as an active ingredient. The price was definitely not appealing but I got it. After 1 day of using this it was like my babies skin was completely transformed!!! Even her sandpaper feeling face got clear and smooth feeling again! All day I was just so thankful and happy to have my babies smooth skin back after weeks of battling skin problem after skin problem. I really think it had to do with the soap in the first place, maybe effected natural skin barrier. Which if you research skin ph and barrier a lot of things will do that. What really washes dirt away is rubbing and water. I could kick myself for even using the the soap on my babies precious skin. So what worked for us was not using soaps and just washing with water, slather on tallow WHILE SKIN IS STILL WET, this locks in the moister. Water is moisture and all lotion and creams do are lock in the moisture so you want your skin wet before applying creams. Creams help slow down transepidermal water loss. Which is another reason to protect your skin barrier as it has ability to retain moisture better. So we washed with water, applied whipped tallow while still wet and this colloidal oatmeal ointment on top of that. I can hardly believe the overnight difference! I almost never ever write a review but just really wanted to share our story if it may help others. I usually do not buy expensive products like this, but I’m glad I tried- it worked AMAZINGLY for my baby- she is so much more comfortable!!! I’m so thankful!

Great for Dry Skin, Works Fast!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
10/10 would recommend. This is heavy duty lotion, cream, but it works for my baby in 1-2 uses if he has dry skin or a rash. It is worth the cost in my opinion, only want to put on a small amount at a time anyway it is very thick and a little goes a very long way.

It’s expensive for a reason, this stuff works! Even better than the steroids
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
It’s expensive for a reason! This stuff works, my 4 mo old has been struggling with eczema for 2 months now and we have been to the ER twice due to infections, I’ve taken everything out of my diet since he’s breastfeeding, we’ve tried every other cream and routine out there. Up until just a few days ago when we ordered Tubby Todd’s his cheeks were constantly raw and weeping. After just 3 days of use with Tubby Todd’s he is finally getting some reprieve and we are finally getting SLEEP (before we would have to hold his hands down manually all night so he wouldn’t itch himself raw) this cream is even better than the steroids, you won’t regret purchasing even at the high price point.

A solid option for managing eczema flare-ups.
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 8 Ounce
Tubby Todd Eczema Ointment is a thick, soothing balm that really helps calm irritated skin. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and doesn’t have a strong scent. The texture is a bit heavy, so it takes a little work to rub in, but it stays on well and gives noticeable relief.
