Overview
An easily grown evergreen hardy fern. Feathery fronds are produced in spring, giving a mossy effect.
Ferns are amazingly tolerant but are generally happiest in partial or dappled shade on any cool, leafy, free-draining soil.
They will add colour, form and texture as well as movement in the garden and are ideal subjects for planting under deciduous trees and shrubs.
Ferns also associate well with herbaceous perennials in the mixed border and add bold foliage interest to a poolside setting.
Or why not try them in pots in shady areas of the garden, under-planted with miniature spring bulbs?
