Ferns, Perennial
Fern Plant - Giant Japanese PaintedGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $8.00 ( Gallon pot )Available (Estimated): 3
Giant Japanese Fern is thought to be a result of a cross between a typical Athyrium nipponicum pictum, Japanese Painted Fern, and its cousin the lady fern (Athyrium filix-femina). A very unique and rewarding hardy fern, this delightful selection performs well in any rich, evenly moist soil. It forms a massive, arching 3 feet tall clump of silvery fronds with green highlights on dark purple stems. Terrific for edging the shade border, in the rock garden, or in containers. Deciduous. Leaves may be trimmed to the ground in late fall or early spring. Plants are easily divided in spring, every 3 to 4 years. As with all athyriums, deer-resistance is excellent.

Fern Plant - Japanese Painted (smaller, more burgundy than Painted)Grower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $8.00 ( trade gallon pot )Available (Estimated): 3
This lovely fern grows around 12-18" tall and slowly multiplies to form a large clump 24" across. The fronds are approximately 18" long and are a soft-grey metallic color with hints of red and blue. The center stem is red so the contrast is excellent. This variety has more burgundy color at all seasons than the other one I offer.
This fern prefers partial rather than deep shade. It is an excellent contrast plant to other shade perennials, such as Hosta, bleeding hearts, columbines, astilbe, and heuchera.

Fern Plant - OstrichGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $8.00 ( Gallon pot )Available (Exact): 2
Ostrich fern is popular for its erect stature and graceful arching fronds (leaves) resembling huge ostrich feathers, up to 5 feet long and 3 feet wide. Each frond is cut into numerous leaflets and subleaflets. As they mature they spread at the tip, creating a lovely canopy effect.
Ostrich fern is very easy to grow in a variety of light exposures, but prefers shade or partial shade. It colonizes fairly fast by spreading rhizomes, eventually forming large, glorious colonies, but rarely becomes invasive. Ostrich fern grows best in moist, rich soil conditions but tolerates occasional drought when established. It's excellent around a pond or in a damp border. Few plants impart such a light, airy, cooling effect in the landscape, or provide such a range of foliage textures for the garden, as Ostrich fern.
Fiddleheads are edible, and this is the preferred species to eat. However, it should only be eaten in moderation as all ferns contain varying amounts of carcinogenic compounds.
The plant is not evergreen, but the fertile fronds turn black and persist through the winter.
They perform better and better with age. Do not plant too deep; set the crowns at or just below soil level. A year-round mulch is recommended. Zones 2-7, and native south to Virginia and Missouri.
