Another with a "Tropical Foliage" tag,
The leaves unfurl from the center, but not quite sure what to call it.

Anyone recognize this?

Thanks Don!
With that, I've narrowed it down to Asplenium nidus (or a similiar sp.)

It is not Asplenium nidus, but it's a Japanese variant. Asplenium nidus has a black stem down it, so it unmistakable, and hopelessly tender! On the right of the photo below is the nidus

Hi, and welcome to the forum!

Thank you for the info, I put this in a shady spot in the GH and forgot about it 😀
Seems to have grown a bit, so it must be happy.

Nice specimen, Steve.

Glad to see your GH clean-out left you room to place your two feet on the floor. 😆 😆
I remain envious of your successes!
