The Boston Fern (Nephrolepis exaltata) is one of the most popular hanging plants in Singapore, loved for its lush green fronds and natural air-purifying ability. This live plant is perfect for HDB balconies, indoor corners, cafés, offices, and garden spaces. Its soft, arching leaves create a refreshing and elegant look, making it a must-have for plant lovers who enjoy low-maintenance greenery.

How to care for Boston Fern in Singapore’s climate:

Boston Fern loves bright, indirect sunlight. Place it near a bright window, shaded balcony, or outdoor area without direct harsh sun. Singapore’s humidity is perfect for this plant, but during dry or air-conditioned conditions, mist the leaves 2–3 times a week to keep the fronds healthy. Keep the soil slightly moist but never waterlogged. Water when the top layer feels dry. Use well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot.
