How to Water bird's nest fern?

Thriving in the high humidity of its tropical rainforest origins, bird's-nest fern has adapted to absorb moisture from both the air and periodic rainfall. This species exhibits a preference for consistent moisture without being waterlogged, reflecting its epiphytic nature. Accordingly, it requires watering every week to maintain its lush, verdant fronds. As an evergreen plant commonly grown indoors due to its love for stable temperatures and indirect light, bird's-nest fern benefits greatly from regular misting to replicate the humid conditions of its native habitat.
