Growing Boston fern, sword fern in a vertical garden

The quintessential fern, the Boston variety is the more commonly known, is easy to
grow and typically found in containers and hanging baskets. Like most ferns it grows
best in full to partial shade, but will withstand partial sun. Hailing from tropical
climbs of the Americas it prefers warmth and humidity, and will require being indoors
in winter in temperate climates. It will thrive when well watered and in rich soils. It
prefers a neutral to acidic soil and will grow slowly and steadily. It may outgrow
vertical garden containers in which case simply split up the rhizome (roots) and
replant.
