Description: Asplenium nidus, commonly known as Bird Nest Fern, is a striking evergreen fern prized for its large, glossy fronds that radiate from a central rosette, resembling a bird's nest. This plant is particularly valued for its lush, tropical appearance and ability to thrive in low-light conditions, making it an excellent choice for indoor and shaded garden settings.

Flowers:

  • Blooms: Asplenium nidus does not produce flowers. Its primary ornamental value lies in its foliage.

Foliage:

  • Leaves: The fronds are large, lance-shaped, and have a glossy, bright green appearance. The edges of the fronds are often wavy or slightly crinkled, adding to the plant's texture and visual appeal.
  • Seasonal Color: The foliage remains green throughout the year, providing continuous visual interest.

Form and Size:

  • Size: Typically grows 60-120 cm tall and 60-120 cm wide, forming a dense rosette.
  • Habit: Upright with a rosette growth habit, making it suitable for various landscape uses.

Growing Conditions:

  • Climate: Thrives in tropical to subtropical climates and is suitable for warm, humid regions in Australia. It can be grown indoors in cooler climates.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining, rich, organic soils. Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils.
  • Sunlight: Best grown in partial to full shade. Direct sunlight can scorch the fronds, so a shaded location is ideal.
  • Watering: Requires regular watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering slightly in the cooler months.

Uses:

  • Ornamental Plant: Highly valued as an ornamental plant for its lush, tropical foliage.
  • Indoor Plant: Perfect for indoor settings such as homes and offices, where it can be grown in pots or containers.
  • Shaded Gardens: Suitable for shaded garden beds and tropical-themed landscapes.
  • Feature Plant: Ideal as a feature plant in shaded areas to draw attention and add lush greenery.

Maintenance:

  • Pruning: Remove any dead or damaged fronds to maintain appearance and encourage new growth.
  • Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage.
  • Pests and Diseases: Generally resistant to many pests and diseases. Monitor for common pests such as scale insects and mealybugs. Good air circulation and proper watering practices help prevent fungal diseases.

Notes:

  • Hardiness: Hardy in USDA zones 10-11. In cooler regions of Australia, grow indoors or provide protection from frost.
  • Companion Plants: Pair with other shade-loving plants such as calatheas, ferns, and hostas to create a lush and diverse garden display.
  • Propagation: Propagate by division of the rhizome or by spores.

Buy direct from Sawgrass, not Amazon
Model: 500N BNDL
I'm giving the review based on the printer, Best printer Ive ever had, easy to setup and use. Ink for printer is expensive but worth it. Buy direct or another company besides Amazon when purchasing though, Amazon customer services wont help you with any issues.

Came with low ink!
Model: 500N BNDL
Will edit! - currently just opened the machine to get it set up and the machine says ink is low, all ink is low. When I used the Amazon trouble shoot chat all it did was say sorry and gave me a link to return. I just want this machine to work with there to be ink! It’s not like this was cheap, the ink that comes with should work and not be empty.

Works Beautifully
Model: 500N BNDL
I looked up videos on YouTube to get tips on using this as I'm a visual learner. I love using my Cricut and making tumblers, and as someone familiar with crafting, it felt second nature using this. Everything worked smoothly and nothing seemed out of place. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but if you're crafty, you'll settle in quickly. The print quality is fantastic, easily higher quality than my inkjet printer. The included “starter ink” gets you going, and replacements are easy to get online. You use the ink they provide which lasts a long time. The results speak for themselves, sharp, vivid, and professional looking prints every time. Definite recommend from me!

Way too expensive, but good quality. Monopolies do that.
Model: 500N BNDL
Makes great prints but is twice the cost of what it should be and the ink is ridiculously expensive. The "starter ink" that is included will prime the lines, but will immediately show you a "low ink" warning. So be prepared to almost immediately spend another $350 on ink. If you use unauthorized ink Sawgrass will lock up your printer and make it unusable. That monopoly is how they can charge so much. Cost is the downside by a longshot. Also - having to use their "Print Manager" slows down production by adding several extra steps after pressing print. Making our shop less efficient. That being said - the quality of the prints we get with Sawgrass is superior to other printers for sublimation.

Changed for the worse
Model: 500N BNDL
I have used my sawgrass SG500’s and an SG1000 for over 10 years with great success and made around 250,000 mugs and ornaments. As you can see, all the 1 star reviews are from this year for good reason. I wish I had read them before I bought a new 500 model. All my prints are now grainy. I have spent days online and it is normal with the new Print Utility and it seems to be the same for everyone in the last few months. I have been unable to find a fix and customer service is useless. It takes days of chat and emails to have what would be a 15 minute conversation. I don’t want to go through the hassle of learning a new system but unless I can get my issues solved in the next few days, I will. The actual printing is faster but it takes several minutes per print to set up. I have to spend about 4-5 times as long to set up a print as I did with the old Print Manager. Instead of spending a half hour to print my art each day, I have to spend at least 2 hours and I get a lower quality print. Unless they can get me set up to use Print Manager again instead of the new Print Utility, I’m getting a different printer.
