A classic for good reason: the Boston fern fills a hanging basket with lush, feathery fronds that cascade in every direction. Ours are grown from divisions in the greenhouse and arrive dense and deep green in an 8" basket with a built-in hanger. Ferns love humidity, so a bright bathroom or a kitchen window is ideal. Give it consistent moisture and it will reward you with steady new growth all year. It is considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, which makes it a lovely pick for a home with pets who like to bat at dangling leaves.
