The bird's nest fern, Asplenium nidus, is a handsome evergreen fern that grows as a rosette of broad, glossy leaves. Though tender, it makes a good houseplant and is ideally suited to a warm, humid spot such as a steamy bathroom or kitchen.

Asplenium nidus 'Osaka' bears long, glossy leaves that have rippled margins, giving the whole plant a rather luxuriant look.

For best results, grow Asplenium nidus 'Osaka' in a fairly bright spot, but not in direct sunlight. If not growing in a humid spot, it will benefit from regular misting with a spray bottle.
