Boston Fern

Nephrolepisexaltata 'Bostoniensis'

The Boston Fern is beloved for its distinctively elegant leaf shape and beautiful, comb-like fronds.

The Boston Fern has no direct connection to the city of Boston, but it was said to be enormously popular there in the mid-19th century.

Having risen to fame in Boston, it spread widely across all of America — and that's how it came to be known as the Boston Fern.
