Outdoor ferns require less attention than indoor ones. However, it is worth it because plants in baskets and hanging ferns, in particular, can reshape the space and make it more dynamic. Same with the patio, in case you decide to put hanging ferns there. But first, choose the most suitable variety for baskets – like Kimberly Queen Ferns or Boston Ferns. The latter is especially perfect for hanging pots due to its weeping nature. Secondly, you must follow some rules if you want your fern to thrive in such an environment. Ensure that plants’ water, light, or fertilizer needs are fulfilled. Most ferns prefer moisture and shade. Fertilizing monthly is also recommended, but it depends on the fern type.
