Lady Fern - Athryrium felix

Straight Species

Cultivar Available (Lady in Red)

Lady Fern is a classic fern for any woodland garden. Has deeply-cut, light green fronds and are rabbit and deer resistant. Division is a common propagation method for most native ferns.  You may choose to divide plants early spring for quicker spread.  While typically found in full to part shade in drier soils than most ferns, Lady Fern is also tolerant of full sun if the site can be kept moist.
