Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' is a compact bird’s nest fern cultivar with stiff, curving fronds and a dense upright rosette. The fronds are lance-shaped, glossy and strongly waved, giving the plant a crisp green outline from every angle.

Fresh fronds rise from the centre as tight coils, then expand into narrow blades with curled margins. 'Crispy Wave' holds a firm, upright habit and compact outline in smaller pots.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' features

  • Asplenium nidus cultivar selected for stiff, curvy fronds
  • Dense, bushy rosette with closely packed fronds
  • Glossy green, lance-shaped fronds with strongly waved margins
  • Slow-growing fern with a compact upright habit in indoor containers
  • Water around the substrate edge so standing moisture does not collect in the central crown

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' cultivar form

'Crispy Wave' is an Asplenium nidus cultivar from Japanese selection work. It has stiff, curving fronds, narrow waved blades and a compact, dense rosette.

All fronds emerge from a central bird’s-nest crown. Fresh growth emerges tightly from the centre, so debris or standing water in the crown can mark soft new fronds.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' care tips

  • Light: Grow in bright indirect or medium filtered light. Strong direct sun can mark or scorch the waved fronds.
  • Watering: Keep the substrate lightly moist and evenly hydrated. Water around the potting mix, leaving the central crown open and airy.
  • Substrate: Use an airy fern mix with fine bark, coco fibre, perlite and a moisture-retentive component. The mix should drain freely after watering.
  • Humidity: Maintain moderate to high humidity while new fronds unfurl. Very dry heated air can brown the rippled margins.
  • Temperature: Keep in stable warmth, ideally around 18–26 °C. Protect from cold drafts and cold windowsills in winter.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Use a diluted fertiliser and monitor for salt build-up, which can show quickly on the frond tips.
  • Potting: Choose a pot with drainage and keep the crown above the mix. Oversized pots hold wet substrate around the small root ball for too long.
  • Cleaning: Dust can collect along the waves. Clean mature fronds gently with a soft damp cloth and avoid rubbing new growth.
  • Propagation: Commercial propagation is specialist work, and home propagation from spores is slow. Grow it as a single rosette plant.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' issues

  • Brown rippled edges: Check for dry air, inconsistent moisture, mineral residue or fertiliser strength. Stabilise care before trimming.
  • Soft centre: Water may be sitting in the crown. Keep the centre clear, increase airflow and water only the substrate.
  • Weak new fronds: Low light or depleted substrate can slow growth. Move to brighter filtered light and feed lightly during the growing season.
  • Marked frond surface: Direct sun, rough handling or chemical leaf products can damage the glossy surface.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' growing notes

New fronds emerge from the centre and gradually build the compact rosette. The upright waved fronds remain visible in small to medium containers.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' household safety

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' is generally treated as a non-toxic ornamental fern. Place it away from repeated chewing and keep the crown free from fallen debris.

Asplenium nidus 'Crispy Wave' name and botanical background

Asplenium comes from the historic spleenwort name, while nidus means nest in Latin and refers to the rosette form of bird’s nest ferns.

Not great...
Color: Black/Negative
The dial is so dark that I can barely see the numbers. Very, very disappointing.

PERFECT
Color: Black
Watch is light weight. Has a good feel on the wrist and easy to read during the day and easy to read with the indigo back light at night. I have large wrists and this size is good. For smaller people it might be to large. The functions work well and its water tight. Its durable and keeps on ticking.

A great value field watch!
Color: Silver
I wanted to give this watch about a week on the wrist before giving my opinion on the watch. I base my decisions on a new watch off the price point and then the overall value that the watch offers for that price. For under $30, you're getting a really nice value in my opinion. The hardened mineral crystal is flat and clear which I like and I was not expecting to get any sapphire crystal at this price point so I have no complaints there. The day/date function is awesome as I like to have a date function. The day of week complication is just icing on the cake for me personally. I do want to point out that the case appears to be made of a metal alloy that gives this really nice sandblasted finish effect. Its not quite matte, not quite pearlescent, but gives some shine that looks great! The NATO strap that the watch comes on is nice quality and what I would expect if I were to pay $10-$15 for a strap from amazon so I appreciate the quality of the hardware on the NATO strap right out of the box. Being quartz, I can tell that this movement is decent, as there is little to no bounce in the second hand and I know the battery life will last for quite a long time before needing to be replaced. With 50M of water resistance, I don't have to worry about this watch being out in the rain or outdoors, which is great peace of mind. Lastly, the lume on the dial is quite bright for this price point. It's not BG9 superluminova or anything like that, but it glows brightly and lasts for a reasonable amount of time. Much longer than many other inexpensive watches I own that have lume on the hands/dial. Hope that helps! For an inexpensive field watch, I definitely recommend this one from MDC/Infantry!

An awesome quartz field watch for very little money
Color: Silver, Color: Silver
I really like this watch from Infantry. It is a sleek, cool stealthy design that goes well with any kind of outfit. It's got a Japanese movement inside it so you know the minutes don't "jump" around when setting it. Also, the date function on mine is still working just great. It's also got mineral glass instead of acrylic. Comes on a nice NATO strap too! Hard to believe it's only 20 bucks.

Best field watch for the price
Color: Black, Color: Black
The watch will display the day of the week in English or Spanish, but unlike similar watches sold on Amazon, it comes with clear instructions to let you choose the language. I don’t like NATO straps and the spring bars for the straps were impossible to remove without cutting away (use diagonal flush cutting pliers), which is the only reason for the 4 star rating, else it would be 5. I put a silicone quick release band on the watch and am very happy with it. The time is very legible, especially with the red highlight on the second hand. I like the 3D effect that shows between the minutes dial and the inner face. Very handsome/gorgeous and no-frills watch. You just can’t do better than this for the price.
