fern-japanesepainted3.jpg (53098 bytes)Japanese Painted Fern was named The Perennial Plant Association's Perennial Plant of the Year for 2004. One of the most reliable and easiest ferns to grow and beautiful as well. The lacy metallic gray fronds dusted with accents of burgundy and red stems electrify dark shady areas of the garden. The plants are stunning when planted with Hostas and Heucheras.Most ferns have a very narrow window when it comes to climates they will endure.... not this one.  Native to China, Korea and of course Japan this fern grows in a wide range of climates and is considered hardy from Zone 3 to 8. Japanese The plants grow in clumps reaching 18 inches tall and up to2 feet wide. These ferns prefer shade but colors are enhanced if some morning sun is available and the roots prefer a loose rich garden soil that has been amended with plenty of organic material. For gorgeous ferns add 2 to 3 inches of compost to your beds each spring.

Note: Many gardening books will claim that Japanese Painted Ferns are tolerant of dry conditions.... while we have found them to be more forgiving during dry spells they are by no means considered to be drought tolerant.
