No misspelling variants are generated for World's Fair plant in our index, suggesting the orthography follows predictable English patterns. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
Etymologically, the entry records: world's fair + plant. From being used as a decorative plant in the gardens of the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago. Root origin matters for spelling because borrowed morphemes (Greek, Latin, Old French, Old English) carry their source-language orthographic conventions into modern English, which is why historical etymology is often the cleanest predictor of whether a cluster like "-ough", "-eau", or "-tion" will appear. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct English form is World's Fair plant, spelled W-O-R-L-D-'-S- -F-A-I-R- -P-L-A-N-T, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.
