Light: The boston fern grows best in areas that are exposed to bright indirect sunlight. Too much sun can burn them while too little will make them appear lacklustered. The ideal place for these ferns are at the front porch where it can receive filtered morning sun and get afternoon shade.
Soil: Use well drained soil that is organically rich.
Water: Keep soil lightly moist but not soggy. When the plant is grown inside, weekly watering is required while outside, it need more frequent waterings.
