Top Tip
Direct water towards the soil rather than the fronds to help prevent root rot.
How to Water
Water well for the first year. After this asplenium is relatively drought tolerant.
How to Plant
Plant asplenium in full shade or partial shade in moist but well-draining soil. Dig in plenty of garden compost before planting to give the soil a boost of nutrients and help hold in moisture.
