• Light: Grow Boston Ferns in a medium to bright light; a north-facing window works best. Do not place Boston Ferns in bright direct light.
• Water: Boston Ferns grow best in a humid atmosphere, so mist them frequently, especially in winter. Position them away from heat ducts or radiators. And, keep the soil just slightly moist at all times. They don't like to sit in water, but don't like to dry out completely either. Watering your Boston Fern often keeps it healthy and vibrant. Watering is especially important when hanging baskets are outdoors, because soil moisture evaporates faster in breezy areas. To make outdoor watering easy, outfit hanging basket Boston Ferns with a container drip irrigation system.
• Feeding: Fertilize Boston Fern house plants every two months with a houseplant fertilizer. Use a general-purpose fertilizer labeled for houseplant use. Follow the directions on the fertilizer packaging.
• Pruning/Shaping: Boston Ferns require no pruning and will keep their arching shape naturally. Remove dead or dried fronds to keep your plant looking its best. If the plant develops yellow or dry leaflets, water and mist more often.
• Repotting: If water runs out of the bottom of the pot quickly after you water, the Boston Fern may need potting. Another sign that repotting is necessary is if roots grow on top of the soil. This means your Boston Fern is root bound and needs to move up to a bigger pot. Repotting is best done when the plant is growing, usually in spring. Use a well-draining soil mixture for when repotting. Never repot house plants using soil from your yard.
• Outdoor Options: In frost-free climates, Boston Ferns can be grown outdoors as a landscape plant. Boston Ferns prefer well-drained soil and shaded or partially shaded conditions.
