Product Description
Athyrium filix-femina 'Victoriae' (20)ct Flat
Common Name: Lady Fern
This vigorous selection of A. filix-femina forms a dense mound of cascading dark green fronds. The end and sides of each pinna is crested in a crisscrossing pattern for additional garden texture. An excellent complement to hostas, coral bells, and other broad leaf shade perennials!
Athyrium grows best in moist soil with a neutral to moderately acidic pH. Partial to full shade is best. To protect the crowns and tender shoots in the spring, it is best to leave the old fronds on the plant over the winter. They can be removed in the spring when the new fronds reach 6 inches tall. If division is necessary, do so in the spring.
Ferns can be sensitive to high salt levels and may become scorched or experience root injury. Ferns need to be kept consistantly moist at all times. They do not, however, want to be soggy or water logged.
