Description

A UK bred fern, Dryopteris wallichiana ‘Jurassic Gold’ is also known as the alpine wood fern. A great option for container planting, this Dryopteris produces tall upright stems bearing pinnate fronds of yellow with tinges pale red. As the leaves mature, they lose the red hue with some remaining a bright golden yellow, and other continuing to change to a deep, glossy green.
