I agree with WillC, Boston ferns are the most difficult to thrive indoors. However much one tries, they will never be as good lookin' as when outside and will always be losing leaves, which gets to you as time goes by. Sword ferns are doing better for me, I have them grouped with other plants, to help retaining humidity, also kept on pebble trays and sprayed each day with lukewarm water. When I had ferns in the bathroom, years ago, they were poorly livin', as the light wasn't enough by any means! All of my ferns are now in indirect light, but not "bathroom light", or dapple shade. Let's not discuss the Adiantum, impossible for me to keep alive.
