Gallon-Sized Fern
Light: Partial-shade
Soil: Medium Wet - Medium Dry
Height: 1-2.5 feet
Description: Stunning addition to shade gardens! Classic plant to grow around oak trees. Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in partial to full shade. Spreads slowly by creeping, branching rhizomes to form large colonies over time. Maidenhair Fern is highly recommended for home landscaping, and is deer resistant! This fern has black, wiry stems and delicate, airy, green fronds that curve into a semi-circle. They can grow up to 2 feet tall and about a foot across. They grow well in the same kind of environment favored by hostas. Definite favorite of TLC staff.
