Nephrolepis exaltata View in CoL
Most of the Nephrolepis cultivars currently in cultivation derive from Nephrolepis cv. ʻbostoniensisʼ, which is conventionally associated with N. exaltata ( Benedict, 1916a). An overview of the most frequently cultivated forms is given by Hoshizaki & Moran (2001).
Morton (1958) suggested that ʻbostoniensisʼ was possibly a hybrid with N. exaltata as one parent. Its constant sterility, morphological instability and vegetative vigour indicate a hybrid origin, but there is no reason to assume that N. exaltata is involved as parent, when we consider that N. x hippocrepicis , which originated well outside the distribution area of N. exaltata , exactly mimics the morphology of N. exaltata , and another such hybrid may equally well have given rise to ʻbostoniensisʼ.
