Asplenium bulbiferum, commonly known as Hen and Chicken Fern, is a charming fern species native to New Zealand. It is prized for its lush, bright green fronds that add a touch of natural elegance to any terrarium or indoor garden. The name "Hen and Chicken" comes from its unique growth habit, where tiny plantlets (chickens) develop on the tips of mature fronds (hen), resembling a mother hen with her chicks.
Ideal for terrariums, this fern thrives in moist, humid environments with filtered light. Its compact size and graceful arching fronds make it a perfect choice for creating miniature landscapes or adding a fresh, botanical accent to your indoor space. Asplenium bulbiferum is not only visually appealing but also easy to care for, making it a delightful addition to any plant enthusiast's collection.
