Alluring and unique, this variety within the bird nest fern category is referred to as a Hurricane or twisted bird nest (aka Asplenium Antiquum). Its dazzling, swirly leaves grow thicker and fuller with age and the larger it grows the more beautiful it looks. This plant is fun and easy-to-care-for. Plant you receive is not necessarily plant in photo. This is a seller AND buyer favorite 🤩 They enjoy water and do not like to dry out too much. Indirect light is best as direct sunlight will scorch the leaves. Comes in 2”, 4”, 6” and 8” sizes based on whole sale designations. These plants ship as a bare root. Minimum of 2 for purchase of 2” size. You can request a pot if you like but If you request a pot please note in some cases it will be separate from the plant itself and you must plant it yourself upon receiving it. Depends on the size If you choose the option with pot that means you get a 6” with the holiday planter, the plant itself will not be planted in the planter you will need to plant it once you receive it. We suggest planting into a regular plastic pot then using the planter for decoration only. Our shop was started to help support our family, we are a small 🇺🇸 American-owned business created to afford the opportunity for my children's education, with the demands of life and doing things without any help our shop does take a bit longer than shops online who are run by large companies. Etsy started out many years ago for artists and craft-makers to sell handmade items as well as individuals who sought to generate additional income for their families, as it has become corporatized the larger companies are taking most of the business and it is increasingly difficult to compete, that being said I always aim to give the best service and do whatever I can to make sure my customers are happy. 90% of our profits are used to pay for my children's education and 10% is given to charity. Your support is deeply meaningful for us. Thank you for taking the time to consider us. Have a blessed day. <3 If you need your order quickly for a gift please request in a private message and we will do our best to accommodate you.
