Tender ferns - houseplants

Some indoor ferns display fine, airy forms giving a light delicate appearance while other can provide a bolder larger leaf structure.

Indoor ferns appreciate indirect sunlight with moist but not waterlogged compost.

These ferns dislike bright, direct sunlight, dry compost and cold draughts.

Many indoor ferns are suited to planting in hanging pots or baskets where they can provide great foliage interest.
