Boston Fern
£16I am one of the most popular ferns around, people love my bushy appearance and delicate feathery fronds. I am native to the jungles of South America so I love humidity, so I am the perfect plant for a steamy bathroom or kitchen!
Free scheduled deliveries and returns (over £50)
To see me at my best
I love humidity and indirect light. I can be fussy with water, so give me filtered water to perk me up!
Size guide

Height is measured from the bottom of the plastic nursery pot (please allow a +/-10% variance). Diameter is the nursery pot diameter, so to get a pot that fits, the pot diameter should be bigger.
