Bird's-nest fern is a common name applied to several related species of ferns in the genus Asplenium. They grow in a tight, nest-like clump with a lingulate leaf rosette and are usually epiphytic, growing in trees. Bird's-nest Fern may also be seen growing on rocks and they will grow in the ground, too.
The best-known species is A. nidus; others include A. australasicum (crow's-nest Fern), Asplenium antiquum and A. serratum (wild bird's-nest Fern).
