Mine seem to grow anywhere but will thrive in part shade. Yes,
they can
get quite large and very messy
I don't find them good indoor plants due to their size and constant dropping
of needles, or whatever they're called. It was a gift from my son many years
ago so we keep it. The plant is about 40 years old.
Thanks! I was wondering if they were as messy as Boston Ferns.
Apparently they are!
40 years old!! Unbelievable! It must be huge!
Even though I
live in the south, I will have to bring
them in this winter. Maybe I'll keep them in the garage beside a
window that faces south.
