''Nephrolepis obliterata'' (Kimberley Queen fern) is a species of fern in the family Lomariopsidaceae.〔University of Connecticut Plant Index, http://florawww.eeb.uconn.edu/200300334.html〕 This fern originated in Australia, but is relatively easy cultivate indoors worldwide.〔Plant-Care, Kimberly Queen Fern, http://www.plant-care.com/kimberly-queen12-i809.html〕 The often misspelled "Kimberley Queen" name correctly has a second "e" in the first name as is trademarked by Westland Laboratories Ply. Ltd. The Kimberley Queen is not as well known as the Boston fern. Because it is not as sensitive to a lack of humidity, it is better suited for the typical indoor environment. ==Cultivation== ''Nephrolepis obliterata'' prefer bright, but indirect sunlight. Temperatures between 60 °F and 75 °F are best. ''Nephrolepis obliterata'' is sensitive to both too little and too much water, so water the plant well but permit the soil to dry out between waterings.〔Fern Care Guide, http://www.greatbiggreenhouse.com/Expert-Advice/Indoor-Plant-Info/Ferns-as-House-Plants.aspx〕 ''Nephrolepis obliterata'' has the added benefit of reducing indoor air pollution, particularly formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene.〔Wolverton, B. C. (1996) How to Grow Fresh Air. New York: Penguin Books.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nephrolepis obliterata」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
