Bird's nest fern

Asplenium nidus or bird's-nest fern is a tropical Asian native fern.
(Polypodiaceae)
This lovely fern with  apple-green fronds can grow up to 50-150 cm long.
They propagate by division or by spores which can be found under its fronds
when matured.
Here at Toucheng Leisure Farm, they are a common sight and gives delight and freshness to the beholder!
 As you walk along the pathways, enjoy their beauty and keep some memories like photos as I did!
It did gave inspiration to the architects of the Bird's-Nest Stadium used during the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China!

Welcome to Toucheng Leisure Farm on your next holiday.

Don't miss this beautiful sight!
