Water Frequently<\/strong><\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Follow the basic rule and water the plant when the soil starts feeling dry. Water it twice a week, and your baby will be all happy. Mist the leaves and clean them with a damp cloth.<\/p>\n

Avoid Direct Sunlight<\/strong><\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Never keep your Boston fern under direct sunlight as they prefer shelter. Your ferns will bloom in bright filtered light.<\/p>\n

Repotting<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Choose a planter<\/a> that has drainage holes and always repot them in the spring season. If your Boston ferns start growing a lot of roots in the planter, then you may repot it.<\/p>\n

Use the Perfect Soil<\/strong><\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Use well-draining soil mixed with perlite and peat moss as it is the best mixture for your Ferns. Fertilise once a month and your potted buddy will thank you!<\/p>\n
