Description

Not only beautiful, super-hardy and long-lived, the Autumn Fern is evergreen! We have specimens in our gardens that are decades old and still thriving. The newly emerging fronds of the Autumn Fern are spectacular orange to copper shades, which mature to a shiny dark green. Likes shade but tolerates a little more sun than many other shade loving ferns. Grows equally as well in containers as it does in garden beds.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing to about 2 feet tall and 2 to 2.5 feet wide, the Autumn Fern is ideal for use as an accent in small garden spaces and in groupings or mass planted as an evergreen groundcover in larger landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Excellent as a solo or combined with other plants in pots, planters and other containers which can be situated on patios, decks, porches and around other outdoor living spaces. A fine addition to woodland and shade gardens, Asian theme gardens, rock gardens, tropical-look gardens, and around garden ponds.

Suggested Spacing: 18 to 24 inches apart for groupings or mass plantings; 4 feet apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

The Autumn Fern is easy to grow and low maintenance. It prefers a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and shade to partial shade. Morning sun with afternoon shade or late afternoon and evening sun is fine.

Plants arrived healthy and beautiful. They are thriving in their shady location along with hostas and begonias.—————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

I discovered these while searching Wilson Bros web site for ideas.. These ferns are the best ferns for us to use outside because they stay evergreen all year in our zone 7 location. The new growth is a golden bronze which adds a bit of extra color in spring and summer. No more annual ferns for us to have to throw away every year. As usual Wilson Bros packed them so well that even a 5 pack arrived in perfect condition and every one of them is thriving. If you love ferns in your outdoor setting but are tired of replacing annual ferns every year give these a try. Not the huge size of a Boston fern so far so have not tried in a hanging basket yet but may even try that next year with some that have have been growing in our tall planters outside all year.——————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come!
