The Bird's Nest Fern prefers bright, indirect light and should be kept in a location that avoids direct sunlight. It thrives in moderate temperatures and high humidity, making it ideal for bathrooms or kitchens. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal issues.Suelo

Fertilize the Bird's Nest Fern with a balanced liquid fertilizer, such as 10-10-10, every month during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when growth slows down.Trasplante
Repot the Bird's Nest Fern every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has drainage holes. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Propagación
Propagation of Asplenium antiquum is typically done through spores, but this can be challenging for home gardeners. Division is not recommended as the plant does not have a rhizome structure suitable for this method.Poda
