Reliable, long lived and easy to grow, hardy ferns are tolerant of cold winter temperatures and can be grown outdoors year-round. Adaptable and versatile, hardy ferns can be used as border plants or in containers and even for erosion control. Most ferns do require a moist, shady spot to perform well.
Hardy Ferns add textures to any shade garden. Fern care is easy when planted in moist, humus rich, and well-drained soil. Plant the crowns at or just below soil level, and apply mulch. Best if protected from the sun and hot, dry winds. Water well until established and in drought conditions.
Fertilize in spring, just after new growth has emerged. We recommend using a slow release fertilizer or organic mulching, as ferns are very sensitive to over fertilizing.
