Finally figured out how to post a picture! So I sent this one...it's starting to get a "trunk" so I'm doing a snoopy dance!
I can finally post my pride and joy!
Heres another one that I love, not a fern but has the same requirements as the birds nest and is as close to looking like a hosta as I can get here in south florida! It's called "Emerald Gem".
I enjoy the tropicals here, very much, but in my heart I know I really should be where the lillies and the hydrangea and the irises grow...all mixed in with ferns.
handbright, it's beautiful is it a Asplenium scolopendrium? hostajim1
Your fern is gorgeous and very elegantly displayed in the urn.

"Earn" tee-hee!

Thank you both for responding. It feels so good to finally be able to post photos instead of just talking about them...

but I'm not entirely sure...
Amy,
Finally found you. That fern is outrageous...... as too the Asp...
Hap
Good job! I buy and try one here except even with shade it's too dry.
Thanks Hap and pheitmeyer- it was just a baby when I got it. It does need the high humidity found here in South Florida, pheitmeyer, and even then I have to water it every day...so even though we share nearly the same zone, its like the old saying: it's not the heat, it's the humidity!
:)

Amy,
That is one GORGEOUS plant in that urn! Congratulations!
Both are Beautiful
Wow...Gorgeous plant you have Handbright !
hostajim 1, it is not a Asplenium scolopendrium, but Asplenium nidus
