Christmas Fern is a rugged and reliable native fern that brings evergreen beauty to shady spaces, even in the depths of winter—hence its festive name. Its glossy, dark green fronds grow in tidy, arching clumps up to 2 feet tall and wide, making it an ideal low-maintenance groundcover for woodland gardens, slopes, and shaded borders.

This fern thrives in well-drained to moist soils and tolerates a range of conditions, including dry shade once established. It's deer-resistant, non-aggressive, and helps prevent erosion on hillsides. With year-round visual appeal and ecological value, Christmas Fern is a foundation plant for naturalistic plantings and native landscapes alike.

Why Choose Christmas Fern?

• Evergreen foliage adds winter interest.
• Great for shady slopes and woodland gardens.
• Deer-resistant and pest-free.
• Helps stabilize soil and suppress weeds.
• Adaptable to a wide range of soil conditions.
  

Remove old or damaged fronds in early spring to make way for fresh growth. Mulch to retain moisture in dry conditions, especially during the first year.
