Boston Fern is a classic houseplant cultivar of Nephrolepis exaltata, characterized by its lush, cascading fronds with delicate, feathery leaflets. It thrives in indirect light and humid conditions, making it ideal for bright bathrooms and living spaces.
Water: High · Height: 60 cm · Soil: Prefers moist, well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Avoid waterlogging and allow soil surface to dry slightly between waterings.
Boston Fern is usually grown from division rather than seed. Lift an established clump and split it into sections, each with roots and a growing point, then replant.
