Bought this to replace a real fern that was lovely but dropped leaves constantly.  What I love about this one is the lighter green "baby" stems peeking out from not only the center but a few other spots around the plant.  It is large and full and will work well.  My one minor complaint is the several of the leaves were a bit bent on the edges. Maybe gives it a rough, realistic look but we'll see if they flatten out a bit.
