This was sold as a Boston Fern, but it is not like the Bostons that I know. Could somebody please ID it for me and perhaps suggest a site for info about it?

It looks to me like one of the varieties of boston fern with the short leaves.. Dont know the botanical name.. I just call it a miniature...I also happen to think it's cute as a button :D

Looks like a delilah, pom pom or a Dallas fern all are very similar to the Bostons, bur shorter frons
