Christmas Fern - 3 root divisions

Celebrate the enduring charm of the Christmas Fern, a perennial favorite that brings year-round beauty to any garden. This robust fern reaches a modest height and width of about 18 inches, creating a neat, compact shape perfect for a variety of garden settings. From its central crown, the Christmas Fern gracefully unfurls up to 20 elegant fronds, each one a testament to the plant's vitality. In optimal conditions, this fern surprises with an abundance of fronds, far exceeding what one might encounter in its natural woodland habitats.

The Christmas Fern's fronds are a study in intricate natural design, with each leaflet (or 'pinnae') arranged symmetrically along a central axis, emanating a lush, full appearance. These pinnae, about 2 inches long, taper gracefully as they approach the base of the frond, with the uppermost ones boasting a unique thumb-like lobe, reminiscent of a quaint mitten. This distinctive feature adds a whimsical touch to the fern's overall elegance. Ideal for shaded areas where indirect sunlight and high humidity mimic its native woodland environment, the Christmas Fern thrives in moist, well-drained soil. Whether nestled in a shady garden corner or adding greenery to a fern collection, the Christmas Fern is a delightful addition, offering a touch of woodland magic to your garden all year round.
