The Bird's nest fern has a unique appearance because of it's deep rosette of large, shiny, spear like fronds rather than feather or palm like fronds. The leaves have a brown mid-rib and wavy margin and grow up to about 2ft long from a rosette of fronds where new leaves appear when the plant is producing new growth. In its natural habitat, it grows as an epiphyte (a plant that grows on trees) in the warm, moist, tropical rain forests. Despite its tropical beginnings, it adapts excellently low light houseplant.
