FERN "NEPHROLEPIS"

 

1.      Nephrolepis 'Ariane'

A new variety that is fast growing with shiny dark green fronds and a slightly more upright growth habit then typical Boston Fern.  'Ariane' is extremely tough and suitable for a wide range of container or basket sizes.  As an added bonus, 'Ariane' brings better cold tolerance to the Boston Fern family.
It seems that we have finally come up with the ultimate Boston!

Nephrolepis 'Emina'

Nephrolepis exaltata ´Emina ® -- The fronds of this strong, compact cultivar stand erect and its slow growth habit makes it excellent for smaller pot sizes. The leaflets are dark green and delicately curled. ´Emina ®´ looks fabulous in arrangements with other small varieties. Close in appearance but tougher than its cousin Fluffy Ruffle, Emina's dark green fronds harden into crinkly/curly patterns. With its strong upright growth habit, this unique fern is perfect for 3 to 6 inch (7-15 cm) table top containers.

Nephrolepis 'Macho'

This fern has an open growing habit, with broad leathery leaflets that is used both for landscape gardening and as a house plant. It is a large coarse fern, with spreading rhizomes, green, with pendant pinnate fronds 1/2 to 1 inch long, the pinnea somewhat leathery.
'Macho' looks fine in a 6 inch pot but is at its best in larger containers or baskets. It is an excellent landscape fern which can be grown in wet conditions and in coastal areas.

 

Nephrolepis 'Nevada'

Meet the "Boston" fern that is quickly catching the eye of every serious Boston Fern grower. More compact and darker green than "True Boston", 'Nevada' gives the grower better space utilization and as an added bonus requires little or no clean up prior to shipping.

If you’re serious about "Boston Fern" then 'Nevada' is the right fern for you
