Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the fronds. Keep the compost consistently moist, watering when the top inch of soil feels dry, but never allow the plant to sit in standing water. High humidity is preferred, so mist the fronds regularly, use a humidity tray or humidifier, or position the plant in a naturally humid room. Ideal temperatures are around 15–24°C, with protection from cold draughts, frost, open windows, radiators, air conditioning and other dry heat sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultural Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nephrolepis exaltata, including Nephrolepis exaltata 'Bostoniensis'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boston Fern, Sword Fern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tender Evergreen Tropical Fern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height \u0026amp; Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60–90 cm × 60–90 cm (conditions dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bushy and arching, with long, graceful fronds that cascade outward as the plant matures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bathrooms, Kitchens, Living Rooms, Bedrooms, Offices, Hallways, North-Facing Rooms, Shelves and Hanging Baskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-flowering — grown primarily for its ornamental foliage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright, indirect light preferred; tolerates lower light conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keep the compost consistently moist and water when the top inch feels dry; avoid waterlogging and standing water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHumidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e High humidity preferred; mist regularly or use a humidifier or humidity tray, particularly during drier winter months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-draining, peat-free compost with good moisture retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apply a diluted balanced liquid fertiliser approximately once a month during the growing season, reducing or stopping feeding during autumn and winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRepotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every one to two years, or when roots begin to fill the pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ideally 15–24°C; keep away from cold draughts, frost and direct heat sources\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePropagation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best done by division in spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tender Evergreen Indoor Fern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lush bright to mid-green arching pinnate fronds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePet Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — non-toxic to cats and dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAir Purifying:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — recognised as an air-purifying indoor plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the soil consistently moist, as allowing the fern to dry out can cause yellowing leaves and dropping fronds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMist the fronds regularly or place the pot on a tray of damp pebbles to maintain humidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the pot has adequate drainage to help prevent root problems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove yellowing or damaged fronds at the base to encourage healthy new growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWipe the fronds gently with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid positioning near radiators, air conditioning units or other sources of dry air\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonitor for spider mites, particularly in dry indoor conditions, and treat promptly if found\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e This Boston Fern is supplied as a lush green indoor plant, ready to display or grow on in a decorative planter.
