Faux Boston Fern – Foliage for the Corner Where Nothing Will Grow

A Boston fern in artificial form, with thick trailing fronds and wire-cored stems you arrange yourself once it is out of the box. UV-stable materials hold the green outdoors under cover as well as they do on a shelf indoors. It ships as the plant alone, so whatever basket or planter you already own will do.

Why choose a faux Boston fern?

Living Boston ferns want damp air, filtered light and a steady hand with the watering can, which is how most of them end up crisp and brown. This one has no such requirements. It also goes in the places a real plant refuses: a windowless landing, a shaded corner, a shelf above a radiator.

• Trailing fronds: full growth that spills over the rim, which is what makes it read as real.
• Shapeable stems: bend each frond after unpacking so the plant suits its spot.
• UV-stable: holds its color on a balcony or a covered porch through the season.
• Supplied bare: no pot in the box, so it drops into a basket or hanger you own.
• Nothing to do: no watering, no light, no feeding, just a dust now and then.

The awkward corner of the room, finally occupied.

Unpack it and give it a few hours somewhere airy before you start arranging. Pull the stems outward and down, and any fronds flattened in transit will relax into shape within a day. A dry cloth, or a barely damp one, is all the cleaning it ever needs.
