The Boston Fern is a very popular indoor pot plant. It's salad green fronds can reach up to a metre long in a hanging basket. We grow two varieties - Teddy Junior and Blue Bells - available at various times of the year in 18cm hanging pots, as well as 14cm and 3ltr pots.
Not to be confused with the "ladder fern" which is a noxious plant.
