This video is, by far, the most complete tutorial on the care and propagation of ferns out there.
Totally ❤
Finally a very precise, informative care video for my Boston Fern. Growing outside it explodes with growth and as soon as I bring it in, it starts dying. Now I know what I've been doing wrong and looking forward to doing all you taught me. Thank you.
You have done an excellent job going through the steps. I am now confident that I can divide my fern without all the anxiety I was having before. Thank you!
In the past I never seemed to have good luck with Boston ferns. But, now I think I was unknowningly buying ALMOST root bound ferns. They looked great for the first 3-4 months before they started to slowly turn brown. I'm encouraged to try them again after watching this. And I'm going to try growing from tubers as well. Thanks for the useful info & have a great afternoon!👍
Propagated thru Rhizomes/bulbs. Got hundreds of them when I reported one old boston fern. Sprouted in 30 days.Thank you for the info.
I was just trying to repot my fern and found a bunch of tubers which led me here. Now I’ve got 24 planted as well as divided my original and I’m excited to see what happens. I’ve got plenty of patience and not any funds for new plants. Gonna have a really pretty porch eventually. :) Thanks for the clear information, enjoyed learning from you.
Thank you for sharing. Time for me to overwinter my fern - which is decidedly root bound. Will definitely divide in the spring and also do some tuber propagation.
Love this! So excited about the tubers!
You’re an amazing teacher! Thank you!💚
Thank YOU, I learn so much from you!!!!! I love these ancient plants
Outstanding video. Great information and visuals. Thank you!
Great video. Love your teaching style and the concise way you explain things. Thanks for sharing your information!
Thanks for sharing the info ☺️ I needed to know that. Now I can transplant my rescue fern. Have a great day and happy gardening 🌿🌱😊🤗
Awesome video and education! I have some massive variety of typical and rare ferns. Yes they do take time to grow.
Great in depth info on the Boston Fern! Maybe mine will survive and thrive now with this great master class!!😊
great, simple, clear demonstration, thank you!
Thank you for taking your time to explain . You're the best.
Love the details here.Thank you so much
Thanks man! Great info.
Hey just found you guys Channel thank you so much on the Boston Ferns info May GOD Bless you guys
Absolutely love this video. You have a great teaching style! I am new to Boston Ferns and bought one yesterday. It is in a 3 season room with good lighting. Will look for all of the things you pointed out.Thank you! ❤
This was fantastic! Thanks! Wish I knew about the tubers before I tossed mine out yesterday. lol
Great tips, I will never look at a tuber again the same way, thanks for sharing!....Subscribed :)
Thank you! I fell in love with their foliage last year on my porch. I will be dividing one I kept through the winter.
Excellent video! Thank you!
Learned so much about Boston ferns growth and care. Very straight forward and easy to follow. Thank you very much!
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for all of this info! I never knew these could be grown from tubers. 😮
Great video! I kept expecting a picture of how these beautiful ferns were used back in June. 🙂
That was the plan, but the part of the video where I mention it got messed up 😔
Thank you. You are so informative and make propagating look so easy. I can't wait to try it!! Thanks
so interesting and so helpful....thankyou
Mate. Thank you so much. I've got the root bound not watering right problem. And I would like a few more for the house. Gonna do just what you said. Cheers from NZ
Great video. And no unnecessary music.
Great Video. Thank you for helping me. Can’t wait to start propagating.
Thanks for the in depth info, I bought my first Boston Fern this afternoon and immediately thought WTF was I thinking! So I divided it just like you said and I planted them in two concrete urns and tomorrow I'll get some fertilizer. Hopefully mine will end up looking as gorgeous as yours.
Nice work my guy.
Thank you so much for this video!!!
I never knew!!! How exciting! I will certainly try this. See them in the stores and admire them, but the prices keep me away. Now I have a way to have many beautiful ferns! Thank you so much.
Thank you for your expertise. I love Boston ferns. But didn’t think I could grow them.
Hi and thanks for info on ferns. I have elephant ears and they are much like ferns, as in watering daily and placed out of direct sun. They don't care as much for fertilizer however. Easy and grow ginormous!! Enjoy your day! 😊
That was an awesome straight-to-the-point video! Thanks for the easy-to-follow propagation instructions. Also, a little tip I found particularly good for Boston Ferns is Epsom Salts. It was an accident really...here in Australia, we are regularly on water restrictions. I took buckets of water from my wife's Epsom Salt bath and emptied it on my potted garden - the following week I saw a mass explosion of foliage growth on my Pittosporum and my Boston ferns. Now I give them a treatment every six months. I'm careful of the potential salt build up and certain plants like conifers and leafy veg don't like the Epsom Salts. But the Bostons sure respond well. Thanks again Tommy!
Awesome! Thank you for the tip.
Thanks for the info on the tubers! I had no idea. I have 3 little ones growing from 'runners' - was an experiment as I wasn't sure they would grow, but they did! I am ready to divide my big one and will look for the tubers and try that also! Thanks again!
This was perfect timing! We have SO many Kimberly Queen & Boston ferns it’s stunning! I check the roots as I do all my plants and saw the tubers! I am so excited to plant more plants! My Boston fern doesn’t have any yet! Awesome video, clean and to the point! Thank you!
Ty so much as I love Boston ferns but never had much luck sadly bcuz I was not well informed regarding their care but you have solved that problem for me and I will most definitely try again
this is a great video! thank you for explaining it so well!
Thanks for explaining the Fern
tubers so well. My daughter bought a 8" pot that was incredibly rootbound and it had dozens of these tubers when we repotted it and we didn't know what to with them. I stuck them in an empty planter with the smallest plants that separated. Only a few sprouted but now I know what to do thanks.
Thank you ,great tips ,getting ready to cut back my ferns and divide ,I will look for the pods ,hope I'm not to late for trimming back ,I'm in California,thanks again 🌿
Love the info !! Thank you! 🌱
don't have those ferns but looks really nice and the video is really interesting to watch
Great info. I really appreciate this.
ThanK you sooooo much for this great video.
Very informative. Love it! Thanks!
Could you do a video of how to locate and propergating from Boston Fern runners or Stolons please
Inlove how youb mentioned making thisna business. Thats noble of you to share yhat
I was just about to post a comment but you answered it! It was about when to divide a rootbound fern!
Haha sometimes I get lucky and mention the relevant information 😂
Thank you for sharing.
You are an excellent teacher! Thanks so much. I have 3 10” pots I over wintered in my basement under grow lights. They are definitely root bound and ready to be divided so I am going to try and propagate them.. What are the lighting requirements for that? Should I keep under grow lights and if so for how long. Also when do you start to fertilize new plants? Thanks again for sharing your info I am now a new subscriber! 😃🌿
Thank you so much for the tips!!!
I learned a lot from watching this video. Thank you!
Excellent video ❤
Thank you, I’ll try to propagate mine too
solid videos mate
Thank you. I had no idea.
I learnt a lot. Thanks a lot!
Thanks 😊!!! Great information !
Very useful video! Right now I have ferns that could fill at least 50 pots, maybe even 100!! What am I waiting for? 😅😅
Great video!❤
Thank you so much🐦 you're tutorial is far superior to other CZcams rs I have watch .thank you I'm going to try to separate my fern this weekend fingers crossed.😎 with the prices so high today I'm hoping for a successful separation❤🙏🐦
Great video man!!! Would love a tutorial on trimming established ferns.
Wow! Thanks for this video
Excellent video. Thank you... Wish me luck. I got 3 sickly ferns on sale & I will do my best to revive them.
I just one today and it’s huge...thank you this was so helpful.
You are so welcome!
Great information thank you
I had know idea about the tubers but I do know how quickly those suckers get root bound 😣. I was just wondering when you’d have a new video!.
Thank you sir
I love this video! Thank you so much for making this, I thought I killed mine (way too much sun, it was like dust instead of leaves) but will separate it and try to find the seeds and revive this fern, whew! Excellent video and thank you! 🤗
Thanks that's some great info, my ferns are outside year round, if they freeze they always come back, I will try this.
Good advice
Great video. Wouldn't know what to say to help make it better.
love it, thanks
very useful. thanks bro.
Just wot I was searching for, thanks for uploading! We bought our new home and there was a massive 1 that looked like it needed some TLC but the house became the 1st priority. 2 yrs on iv finally got around to try sorting out this poor plant and for some un be known reason, it's hung in there waiting.
Removed it from its strangled root bound pot and came across those mini brain looking things so turned to Google which didn't help, then I found u here! 😍
There are literally 100s of these little tumours the majority brown..... Can these still be used or only the healthy coloured ones?
Wish me luck, although I love plants and do try, I'm not very green fingered, I can even kill weeds which is a shame my tortoise needs them🤦♀️
Thanks in advance 😉
Can you find tubers in Kimberly ferns as well. Thanks for sharing!❤❤
Great video love Boston ferns. I never knew about the bulbs, how long can u keep these bulbs. Like if u didn’t want to use them until next year to start ferns again is this possible or do they need to be planted as soon as they come off the mother fern? U have gained a new subscriber with this vid
Not sure if they'll survive a whole season, but they're like any other bulb/corm. Cool dry storage will keep their metabolism slow, and it'll take them a while to use up their energy stores. But the more energy they use up in storage (even stored under ideal conditions) the less energy they will have left to put into creating a healthy plant once they're in the ground. Old bulbs do sprout, but they tend to grow weaker plants that take longer to mature.
This is so helpful, thanks so much! When planting the tubers, how much light should I put them in and how much should I water them?
Just keep them moist and warm. Light isn’t really a factor until you get growth
Informative ,good
Can you divide a fern in the fall (now, in South Texas) or should I wait till spring? Should and and if so how should I winterize them? I don’t have a basement or greenhouse to store them in. You explained so well in your video. 😁 Thank you!
Wait till spring if you don’t have a greenhouse.
wow, awesome video, thanx, i have big beautiful ladies in red how can i give them nitrogen during growing season without them turning green on me?!
Very clear. Tx
So helpful! Ty! Blessings! New Subby!!🙂
I purchased my first Boston fern last Summer from home Depot, I got it for $10 because it looked rough. Brought it home and it was Major root bound. Took my sawzall and made 4 plants. In six weeks all 4 was huge and beautiful. I'm in North Georgia and been bringing them in my car garage on cold nights over the winter and they still have most of their green leaves. I do Bring them out on warm days. For the last 2 weeks we've been getting warmer so I've been leaving them outside then we had a slight cold snap so I covered them in plastic and it got really warm that day. 2 of the ferns got burnt. 90% percent of the green leaves got scorched. . There is some green at the crown of the plant. Will they bounce back? Or did I screw up?
Can you do both, divide and plant some tubers? Would it be too much stress for the fern?
You can definitely do both
Thank you
Great, informative video! Thank you! One question, how often do you water tubers?
Just as they dry down a bit but not all the way dry
Thanks a lot
Very informative easy to understand. Would l treat a sun lover boston fern when keep it in house for winter?
Yes they will freeze outside.
Thanks. What do you sell the small ferns for….. .if you don’t mind. Where to get the small hanging pots? Great video and info. How about spore propagation ? Thanks ….Jim in Texas
$10 for the small fern baskets.
Really helpful thankyou. Ive been struggling with boston ferns and now on my 3 rd...ive tried adding grit to the bottom of the pot, watering from the bottom, perlite in the compost, misting daily and now bought a soil tester...wondering what I'm doing wrong. PH is around 7 - using rainwater...i dont think I'm getting the watering / drainage right...on a north facing kitchen window sill now...bright but no direct sunlight where my pileas thrive! What should I try next?
They do not make great inside plants. Start by giving them time outside in the morning. They do not need direct sun during the heat of the day. The water shouldn’t be the problem.
Bravo !
Thank you so much for this class on ferns, I have a beautiful fern and I guess I’m doing the right way of watering and where it should be.
I have a question though; I noticed that on the side of the leaves there is a vein growing with leaves and don’t know if I should transplant this or just leave it. You showed a nut like to propagate the plant. What should I do with this vein with already having its own leaves.
Thank you.
Just leave those on the plant 👍
Hi what do you do with the roots that grow out thank
