Polystichum polyblepharum (Japanese lace fern) – 2 litre pot
Otter Price: £8.99
Hardy evergreen fern that thrives in rich, organic matter soil in shady parts of borders and gardens. Young fronds are yellow-green, erect, lance-shaped and covered in golden hairs as they unfurl.
Care instructions:
– Avoid planting directly in the frozen soil.
– Container planting is possible throughout the year; use containers that are large and deep enough to prevent roots from freezing in the winter, and ensure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the container.
– Water well after planting. Avoid waterlogged conditions in winter.
– Feeding is not required. Incorporate rotten plant matter into the compost or soil at planting.
– Keep well-watered during hot, dry spells.
– Old fronds should be removed before new ones unfurl.
