Male Fern

An unusual variety of the male fern with crested, mid-green fronds which form the distinctive shuttlecock shape. Each individual leaflet on the frond is also crested and crisped giving it its unique shape. An excellent companion for shade-loving woodland plants, it's perfect for a partially shady, moist, humus-rich border sheltered from strong winds.Position: partial shadeSoil: moist, humus-rich soilRate of growth: averageHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: Incorporate lots of well-rotted leaf mould, composted pine needles or garden compost into the planting hole
