As epiphytes, Bird's Nest Ferns grow in trees in their native habitat. This medium-large specimen is mounted on a stunning piece of Cypress driftwood from out Ogeechee River. I remember working from the kayak to retrieve this beauty. I could see some of its curves, but didn't fully appreciate its splendor until later pairing it with this fern. Good for indoors or outside, in bright shade-to-some direct morning sun. (Inside for frost.) 50" x 16" and includes wire for hanging. [Asplenium nidus.]

I believe this was the original houseplant. Name means “tree-lover;” this lovely vine is tolerant of the low light and dry air in the house, but would prefer filtered sun and a daily shower. [Philodendron scandens]

Sego Palms are living fossils dating back to the time of dinosaurs. The grace of its foliage—often used dramatically in floral arrangements—betrays its wirey toughness. Compact at first, then as plants mature in ten or so years, they may develop a trunk that can be several feet tall, and with fronds six feet across. Female plants eventually have a “nest” in the middle, where seeds form. Male plants send up flower stalks a few inches in diameter and three or more feet tall. These babies come from buds that form on the trunks of mature plants, but plants also are geminated from the seeds. NOTE: Sego seeds are toxic to animals. While they are not prone to fall or spread easily, it is good to keep an eye out. Segos make beautiful accent plants, and do well in pots--needing very little space.
