Royal Fern

$9.99

The Royal Fern (Osmunda regalis) is an upright, deciduous Fern that brings resilience and beauty to tougher locations in the landscape. Emerging pinkish in the early spring, the cut-leaf fronds quickly turn green, as foliage fills an area with gorgeous hues and cool color saturation. A native Fern, they inhabit a wide range of climates and conditions throughout the US. The Royal Fern is also known as the Flowering Fern and is a lovely deciduous perennial.

Care

This fern thrives in partial to full shade, making it an excellent choice for shaded or woodland gardens. It prefers moist, well-draining soil that remains consistently damp but not waterlogged. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil moist and maintain the fern's lush appearance. Applying a layer of mulch around the base of the plant helps retain soil moisture and regulates temperature. This fern is generally low-maintenance, requiring little pruning. Removing any damaged or dead fronds helps keep the plant tidy and encourages new growth.

Growth Habit

Zones 3-9; growing to 2-3' both tall and wide. The broad fronds have large, well-separated pinnae (leaflets) which give this Fern a lacy, ethereal appearance

Toxicity

Non-toxic to humans and pets. Deer & Rabbit resistant.
