How to fertilize Asplenium buettneri
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Asplenium buettneri after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Why is my plant dying? I’ve had this plant for several months now. I have it in a room that gets medium amounts of light and it is not in direct sunlight. I have pebbles under the pot to help with humidity. What else can I do to try and save it? I really appreciate the help.
