Artificial Boston Fern Plant: Honestly, I never thought I would buy any kind of artificial plant, since I am a gardener, but as they say, never say never. I love (real) hanging ferns. Unfortunately, my neighborhood house wrens love them as well - which means the wrens build nests in which to lay their eggs in the (real) ferns, which means I have to stop watering those ferns, and then the ferns die ... Score: Birds 1, Humans 0. So ... I bought a birdhouse and a fake fern for my deck\balcony. For an artificial plant, this fern is quite realistic appearing. The only reason I gave it a "4" is that it appears less full and verdant than in the picture. However, since I had purchased 2 of these artificial plants (on sale), I decided to augment one plant with fern fronds appropriated from the other. (You can pull out the individual fronds from the base to accomplish this). It worked quite well, and made quite a robust appearing plant, which is now out on my deck. I will let you know what the birds think, since the birds always seem to have the last word. (I am hoping they vote for the cedar birdhouse as their new residence).

This is the most realistic faux fern I have ever seen. You absolutely cannot tell it is fake without touching it….will be ordering more!

This is a great size fern. From afar it looks pretty real but from close-up not as much. I am going to keep it because it does serve a purpose.

Very realistic fern. The color is perfect and it was packaged well. Easy to set up. Will be purchasing another.

Gorgeous and perfect size for my front porch pedestal planter
