hard fern or deer fern

Product Image
As they age the feathery, dark green fronds of this handsome, evergreen 'hard fern' spread semi-horizontally to form an attractive, rosette-like shape. One of our recommended varieties, it provides all-year interest for shady areas of the garden and companionship for shade-loving woodland plants.

How to care for Blechnum spicant:

Incorporate lots of well-rotted leaf mould, composted pine needles or garden compost into the planting hole. Remove dead fronds in spring.
