Read about Nephrolepis smithii in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Nephrolepis smithii, J. C. Clark, from Amerpohlii. Lace Fern. Lvs. 3-pinnate, 8-12 in. long, 6-8 in. broad, divided into very small, close segms. 1/16 in. long. The pinnae; are crowded so that the lvs. become very dense and are thus liable to injury by careless watering. There are a number of named varieties of the same general type but differing in growth characteristics. Smithii seems to be the most generally used. Others are as follows: Amerpohlii, Amerpohl; gracillima, Barrowsii, from magnifica; Clarkii, Smith, from Smithii, Milleri, Miller; Neubertii (German) Rochfordii (English); Craigii, Craig, from Smithii, is 4-pinnate, with linear segms., but too soft to be of commercial value.
