Add Your Opinion About This Plant
Nice dark green fern. Foliage is somewhat glossy, so it is a subtle but nonetheless attractive addition to the shade or woodland garden. Deals relatively well with dry shade (one of the most difficult gardening conditions). Deer will avoid it as well, so it can be planted around other plants that they desire (such as hosta!) and it will deter them from the more delectable plants.
I like this opinion Note: please don't use this box to post questions, you can do that on our forums instead. |
