Hi Guys,
Can you help me ID the name of this fern?????
Debi
Can you name this fern?
Hi Debi. It looks like some form of Asplenium, the Birds Nest Fern. Could you send a pic of the base of the fronds?
Hi again. Could be a Platycerium (Elk / Staghorn fern), very hard to tell. Best put it into some potting media and grow it on in a shelterd spot with good watering. Don't bury the plant too deep into the mix (especially if it is a Platycerium, as these are epyphites).
Good luck! Hopefully by this time next year, your fern will have put on some growth and we can identify for sure.
Hi Debi, your fern is Microsorium punctatum, Climbing Bird's Nest Fern.
Looks identical to the one I got a few years back under the name Asparagus Fern.
