## Can I repot or customize this artificial Boston fern?
Yes, you can repot this artificial Boston fern if you wish to change its look or match your decor. The plant comes in a 15cm pot, but you can transfer it to a decorative planter of your choice. When repotting:
1. Select a pot that's slightly larger than the original (ideally 16-20cm)
2. Consider adding decorative stones, moss, or floral foam to secure the plant
3. You can trim any fronds if needed to adjust the shape (though this is usually unnecessary)
Customizing the planter is an excellent way to personalize the plant to match your interior design style.
## How do I prevent my artificial Boston fern from fading?
To prevent fading and maintain the vibrant green color of your artificial Boston fern:
1. Keep it away from direct sunlight, which can cause the colors to fade over time
2. If placed near windows, consider using UV-filtering window films or sheer curtains
3. For outdoor covered areas, position it where it won't receive direct sunlight
4. Periodically rotate the plant if it's placed in an area with uneven light exposure
5. Clean regularly as dust buildup can make colors appear dull
With proper placement and care, your artificial Boston fern should maintain its vibrant appearance for many years.

To enhance the realism of your artificial Boston fern:
1. Place it in a decorative pot or basket that complements your decor
2. Add a layer of moss, decorative stones, or faux soil to cover the top of the pot

## What's the expected lifespan of this artificial Boston fern?
When properly cared for, this artificial Boston fern can last for many years, making it a worthwhile investment.

## Does this artificial Boston fern come fully assembled?
Yes, this artificial Boston fern comes fully assembled and ready to display right out of the box. There's no need for any setup or arrangement.

The convenience of immediate display is one of the many benefits of choosing this artificial plant over a real one.
## Can this artificial Boston fern help improve air quality like real plants?
Unlike real plants, artificial plants do not photosynthesize or filter air pollutants. While this artificial Boston fern won't improve air quality or produce oxygen like a living plant, it offers many other benefits including aesthetic appeal without maintenance. If air purification is important to you, consider complementing your artificial plants with a few easy-care real plants known for their air-filtering qualities, or use an air purifier alongside your decorative artificial plants.
## Is this artificial Boston fern eco-friendly?
While artificial plants don't provide the environmental benefits of real plants, they do have some eco-friendly aspects:
1. Long lifespan means less frequent replacement and reduced waste
2. No need for water, fertilizers, or pesticides that can impact the environment
3. No risk of introducing invasive plant species
4. Can be repurposed or recycled at the end of its life depending on materials
For those concerned about environmental impact, consider balancing artificial and real plants in your space to enjoy the benefits of both.
