Product Information
Hardy ferns are a hidden gem of the gardening world, and should be grown much more widely. They suffer from perceptions they either take over like Bracken, or need wet spots to grow in - some do, but most don't.
This specially selected trio of ferns are really special though - they are both hardy, and evergreen, so stand out as some of the best to grow, as most die back underground each winter. They will reward you with year-round foliage interest, and are perfect together as a small fernery in the border or in a large pot, or in mixed planters, or cool, deep, moist soils.
This collection includes one each of 3 named ferns (varieties may vary depending on seasonal availability).

Top Tips
All ferns respond well to a little TLC in their first two years until they are established, so make sure that they get plenty of water and rich, fertile soil.
Care Information
- Low maintenance, ferns thrive in dappled, woodland shade so are at their happiest in light shade in moist, fertile soil.
- Ferns don't normally need fertilising, but do appreciate a leafy humus mulch in the autumn or a dressing of well-rotted manure.
- Water regulary and from the base of the plant to avoid water sitting in the crown which can encourage rot.
- Ferms make excellent container plants, happily sitting with other perennials.
- Pruning is also not normally necessary, but plants benefit from the old fronds being removed in spring as the new ones appear.
