Nearly Natural Boston Fern with Wicker Basket Artificial Plant

It arrives in a really nice pot and great packaging. It is very easy to arrange the fronds, the colors are excellent, and looks like the real thing.

This Boston fern looks amazingly real! I've had live plants in the past but now I travel a lot, for a month or two at a time, making it difficult to maintain them. I'm so impressed with this one that I'm buying more for different rooms inside and hanging ones for my patio. This even looks good up close and the wicker basket is a very nice one - it's brown with little feet on the bottom. When it arrived in a long box I was skeptical about its appearance but it was perfect - it didn't need to be fluffed or have the leaves arranged. I'm so happy with this that I won't even consider looking at other companies for artificial plants. For the price it's a terrific deal and I hope Nearly Natural will have small Christmas trees available. I have this one in the corner of a hallway on a ceramic garden stool and it adds a little bit of 'life' to an otherwise lifeless spot. I would definitely recommend this and anything else made by them. The pictures don't do justice to the beauty of the plant, there's and mine - it's much prettier in person!

Needed very little “fluffing”.

This is just what I was looking for to fill a chinese fish pot. Turns out the dimensions of the top of the basket are a bit larger than the opening of my pot, so it doesn't sit down all the way on the bottom, but it only projects a little, and I think that's fine. I like having the basket as I could just take the fern out of the pot and use it elsewhere if I wish. The plant couldn't be more natural looking. The "baby" fronds at the top are plastic which is more natural for their waxiness than silk, although latex might be nice too. The little brown tendrilly things add a realistic touch as well. The fronds can be easily bent to position. I love real plants, but I travel too much to keep them properly watered. Plus those little tiny flies you often get..........this is a great alternative.

All 4 ferns arrived fast, well-packed, and intact. Basket holding fern is nice. We intend on placing them inside larger hanging planters for the deck. The plants only needed a little "fluffing", but otherwise look fine. They do look quality. Some say plant is larger or smaller than picturde, but I'd say it's just about right. We plan to treat the leaves with UV ray protective fabric spray good in silks and outdoor furniture to protect from fading and discoloration as we intend on using these same plants for the next several years. We will not separate the ferns from the decorative planters they came in, as they sit down well in the light green planters we use year after year. Then during off-season, we can remove the ferns and use them indoors for year-round use.

Upon opening the box and seeing the fern squished in the box, I was concerned about how it would look once I got it out of the box. I shouldn't have been concerned though, it looked great!

This faux fern is stunning! The planter that it is in is beautiful. The only thing that would make it slightly better is if it had more substantial weight to it. That being said I'll put some decorative rocks in it to keep it from moving so easily. I have several Nearly Natural faux trees and plants and each and everyone of them are just beautiful. They really are as close to real looking as you can get.

Personally I hate fake plants & think they are tacky but I recently moved from WA to TX & haven't figured out how to keep anything alive here because the windows all have sun screens on them to keep the heat out but they also don't allow plants to get the sun they need. When I put them outside for a bit they fried. So I gave up on having plants in the house :( but I also like to have plants on my front porch so instead of buying outdoor plants & having them fall to the same fate as my indoor plants I figured I would buy fake for the first time. It required minimal fluffing out of the box which some is to be expected. Its just the right size I was looking for. It is pretty full. The basket it comes in is very nice. I put the whole thing in my outdoor ceramic planter. Not sure how it will do outside & in the TX sun but I'll be moving again in about 6 months so as long as it lasts that long I'll be happy. I also bought one with flowers on it to have one on either side of my front door & this one that is all ferns looks more real. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because of how I feel about fake plants. I wouldn't keep this in my house because I like to use real plants to improve indoor air quality. But if you like fake plants than you will love this one!
