Fern Corditas

Although quite different to Boston, 'Corditas' is another fast, uniform grower. Its modest size and maximum frond length of 12 inch (30 cm) make this dwarf fern ideal for smaller pot sizes and arrangements. The sturdy, erect leaf stalks are close together and are densely covered with fine, dark green leaflets. 'Corditas' looks a lot like 'Fluffy Ruffles', but has finer leaflets, a slightly slower growth habit and is more suitable for smaller pot sizes.

Not only is the Sword Fern aesthetically pleasing, but it also offers a multitude of benefits to its surroundings. It is well-known for its air-purifying properties, effectively removing toxins from the air and improving indoor air quality. This makes it an excellent choice for those concerned about air pollution and seeking to create a healthier living environment.

The Sword Fern is also relatively easy to care for, making it suitable for both seasoned gardeners and beginners. It requires regular watering to maintain adequate moisture levels, but care should be taken to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. It is also beneficial to mist the plant occasionally to increase humidity, especially during drier months or if placed in an air-conditioned room.
