Name: Bird's Nest Fern

Scientific: Asplenium australasicum

A.K.A.: Crow's Nest Fern

This Variation: This is a High Poly model. A Low Poly version is also available.

Notes: Grows as a shrubby plant, with a rosette of yellow-green fronds which are 60 to 80cm long. It grows on rocks or as an epiphyte on trees and is native to eastern New South Wales and Queensland. The clumps can reach a large size, with the centre of the fern acting as a reservoir for debris. Specimens were taken from logged areas, which helped them become popular in horticulture. It adapts readily to cultivation, as long as it has good drainage. Apart from its use as an ornamental plant, bird's nest fern is also a popular vegetable in Taiwan, particularly in the Eastern part of the island, where the young emerging fronds are used as a leafy vegetable.
