Plant description
Asplenium 'Hawaiian Sunshine' emerges from a nest-like centre, reliably producing new leaves that create a distinctive flayed shuttlecock effect, with fronds that vary between delicate and dramatic depending on growing conditions and age.
Naturally adapted to epiphytic growth in tropical environments, this versatile plant thrives in bright, indirect light and high humidity, making it an exceptional choice for indoor gardeners seeking a statement piece that purifies air and brings a touch of rainforest magic to home or office.
While capable of reaching impressive heights of 1.5m (5ft) in outdoor settings, this cultivar maintains a more modest 1m (3ft) stature when grown in containers, ensuring it remains a manageable yet stunning focal point that continuously evolves with each new unfurling frond.
Perfect for mounting on bark, nestled in a hanging basket, or displayed on a bright windowsill, 'Hawaiian Sunshine' offers unusually interesting foliage to the intricate beauty of tropical understory plants.

How to care for Asplenium Hawaiian Sunshine:
Avoid handling the newly emerging fronds and water regularly in the growing season so that the compost remains moist but not waterlogged. Mist the leaves regularly with water - particularly in winter when the central heating is turned on. Maintain temperatures above 10°C in winter and repot in spring before the plant becomes too root-bound.
