The Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata) is a popular houseplant and garden plant that is native to tropical regions of the Americas. It is known for its lush green fronds that can grow up to 3 feet long and its ability to remove pollutants from the air. Boston ferns prefer bright, indirect light and high humidity levels. They should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot. These plants also benefit from occasional fertilization and repotting when they outgrow their container. Boston ferns can be propagated by dividing the plant at the root ball and planting the separated sections in fresh soil. They are susceptible to pests such as spider mites and mealybugs, so regularly inspecting the plant and treating any infestations is important for their care.
