Care Instructions

The Asplenium antiquum is a low-maintenance friend, perfect for busy plant parents:

• Light: Prefers moderate, indirect sunlight. Avoid harsh, direct sun or deep shade.
• Water: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil dries out. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Reduce watering frequency during winter.
• Humidity: Enjoys moderate humidity levels. Occasional misting or a pebble tray filled with water can help, but not essential.
• Toxicity: Non-toxic to pets and humans.

Bellr Bonus Tip:

Asplenium antiquum can be propagated by dividing the rhizomes (underground stems) in spring or summer. This allows you to create more of these beautiful ferns to share with friends and family.
