Larger ferns like tree ferns or vase shaped ferns have issues with the spin......it is like an eighth turn a week.... technical fern stuff.
The plant adapts to the slow rotation.
If the rotation is more than that the ferns form is toasted.
The fronds twist and bend towards the light......making the vase shape like a Chihuly.
Bostons will not react to this so readily as different plants.
