Description
Shady corners, meet your match! This fern collection turns the trickiest part of the garden into a feature. Three magnificent, fully hardy ferns, each a holder of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, and combined to deliver a layered, multi-textured display of colour and form that evolves beautifully through every season of the year.
All three are fully hardy, virtually trouble-free and easy to grow. Plant them together in a shaded border or a large container for a display of genuine sophistication that will improve year on year.
You will receive one each of:
Athyrium niponicum ‘Metallicum’, known as the Painted Fern: Arching fronds in shimmering silver with rich burgundy-red veins threaded through each leaf. The colour palette shifts and evolves through the seasons, for a changing display that looks as though it has been hand-painted. Growing to around 4045cm, it forms a neat, elegant, weed-suppressing clump. Dryopteris erythrosora, known as the Copper Shield Fern: Brand new fronds emerge each spring in a blaze of vivid copper-pink, before deepening to rich, glossy dark green by summer. Fully hardy and virtually indestructible. Polystichum munitum, known as the Western Sword Fern: Big, bold evergreen. Lustrous, dark green, sword-like fronds sweep upwards in a dramatic shuttlecock formation, staying lush, vibrant and fully evergreen throughout every single month of the year. Growing to around 90cm tall, this is a fern of genuine architectural presence.Supplied as a set of three established plants, one of each variety, in 2 litre pots.
