Nephrolepis ‘Macho’
Giant Sword Fern
A relative of the classic Boston Fern, the ‘Macho’ has much larger fronds, which can grow to over 1m in length. Brings an elegant, graceful and wonderfully tropical feel to your home - best displayed in a hanging basket or plant stand.
Tolerates all levels of indirect light, but not deep shade. Keep soil moist - water when the surface becomes slightly dry. Avoid draughts and keep away from radiators. Prefers humidity – mist every so often or display in a humid environment.
Nursery Pot Size: 20cm (includes hanger to hang the fern)
