Quick Search: Boston Fern - Displayed by Common Name in Ascending Order

This cultivar has been the best selling Nephrolepis in Europe. It owes its huge popularity to its uniformly high quality, its rapid growth and typical of the Boston varieties, its dense and compact shape. The smooth leaflets are intense, fresh green. All these properties contribute to the high ornamental value of this fern, which is smaller than the True Boston fern.

A favorite since Victorian times, with gracefully hanging fronds. Excellent in hanging baskets or in a container on a stand. Boston Ferns are one of the easiest ferns to grow indoors. It's also one of the top rated plants for removing air pollutants from the air and because of its almost insatiable appetite for water it pumps out large amounts of water vapor into the nearby air, thereby increasing humidity.

Nephrolepis exaltata ‘Fluffy Ruffles’ is a variety of Boston fern with light ruffled fronds and a compact growth habit. This cultivar does not produce spores, and reproduced through rhizomes that spread through soil. Like most ferns, ‘Fluffy Ruffles’ will do best with extra humidity and out of direct sunlight.

The relatively new cultivar ‘˜Nevada®‘™ is a serious contender for ‘˜True Boston's‘™ place at the top, especially when planted in larger pots. It scores slightly higher on a number of points. For example, for its extremely rapid growth habit, uniformity and the sturdiness of its erect fronds, as well as for its overall strength and hardiness. Although not fully hardy ‘˜Nevada®‘™ will thrive on the patio. A top product by any standard, its quality underlined by the lovely, dark green color.
