The Ferns They are some of the plants considered as living fossils, since they were one of the first to appear on Earth, after all those that we know as moss did. In their heyday, they grew over practically the entire surface of the earth. The climate was so pleasant that it favored that some of them reached surprising heights considering the stage of evolution in which they were.
Today we find them mainly in tropical areas, where they live in humid forests, under the shade of the large trees that draw the landscape. Fortunately, there are many that we can have indoors without problems. Here we will tell you the three best to take care of.
Asplenium’s nest
The asplenium nest also known as a bird’s nest, it is increasingly common to find it indoors. Its long, bright green leaves are just wonderful, don’t you think?
It is native to the rainforests of Australia, so it requires a lot of environmental humidity … something that is achieved by putting several glasses of water around it or, better yet, pulverizing the leaves daily except in winter.
Nephrolepsis cordifolia
The Nephrolepsis cordifolia It is a very interesting fern, since it can be both outdoors as long as the temperatures do not drop below 0 degrees, but it can also live indoors. It is one of the easiest to care for and maintain.
Originally from South America, it has a reasonably fast growth and, in additionis ideal for those who have no experience with ferns.
davallia
The davallia they are, in general, very cold due to their tropical origin. Indoors they will grow well as long as they have plenty of light and high humidity. They are rather small plants, which do not take up much space. That is why they can be kept in small pots or pots.
