Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

The 'Crissie' Bird's Nest Fern (Asplenium antiquum 'Crissie') stands out for its distinctive fronds, which have unique, frilly, and slightly curled ends, creating a striking, scalloped appearance unlike typical Bird's Nest Ferns. This makes 'Crissie' a favourite for adding a lush, tropical feel to indoor spaces or shaded areas in Perth’s climate. Its vibrant green foliage grows in a rosette shape, providing a bold, textural element that suits bright, indirect light. The compact size of this cultivar makes it particularly well-suited for pots or smaller garden beds.

Best grown in a well-draining, organic-rich soil mix, 'Crissie' thrives with regular watering, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist without becoming soggy. The fern will reach around 60 cm tall and wide when mature, providing year-round visual appeal due to its evergreen nature. Ideal for indoors or shaded outdoor spots, 'Crissie' brings a unique and elegant touch to spaces, softening them with its dense, leafy fronds that curl delicately at the ends.
