Hardy Royal Fern

Dark red to rusty brown plumes rise above deep forest green fronds, adding texture and movement wherever shade meets moisture. Royal Fern can reach an amazing 7' tall, thriving in humus-rich, consistently moist soil. It is especially effective near ponds or streams, or when layered into woodland borders. It brings a naturalized look without ever producing flowers. Royal Fern is an attractive, reliable, long lived choice for shaded gardens.
