How to keep Asplenium Normale.
Light

Temperature
Rainforest spleenwort can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, though its distribution may still be restricted by different combinations of moisture and heat. It does best in warm summer conditions with sufficient rainfall or watering. Long stretches of cloudy, rainy weather, as well as extended periods of high heat, can raise the chance of Rainforest spleenwort dying. In winter, protecting it from cold can increase its survival rate.
