Asplenium onopteris, the acute-lobed spleenwort, is an elegant fern that prefers cool, shaded conditions with consistently moist, humus-rich soil. It thrives in dappled shade and appreciates high humidity, making it a great candidate for a shaded garden border or a humid bathroom indoors. Avoid direct sunlight and allow good air circulation to keep fronds healthy and green.
