Description

A reliable, celebrated evergreen fern that thrives in shade. The Korean Rock Fern is compact, fully hardy and so elegant, bringing texture and frond structure to even gloomy garden corners.

Also known as Polystichum tsussimense, this is an RHS Award of Garden Merit-winning variety, having been tested and proven to perform in gardens.

Finely shaped, glossy green fronds grow upright. Plus, they are evergreen so as the seasons shift, new growth unfurls with a delicate purple tint, gradually deepening to a dark, rich green that holds strong through winter.

It shrugs off frost, thrives in full or partial shade, and needs next to no care once established. Whether planted beneath trees, along a shady path, or as a feature in a decorative pot, it consistently looks smart without much fuss. Simply cut back older fronds in early spring to see the purple-tinged fresh growth.

Growing to a compact size, the Korean Rock Fern is ideal for smaller gardens or spaces with limited light. It works beautifully alongside shade-loving plants like hostas, other ferns, and heucheras.

Top Tips
All ferns love a good pampering throughout their first two years to get them established - lots of water and humous.
Care Information
  • Prepare the soil deeply before you plant your fern, removing all weeds and adding plenty of well-rotted organic matter such as leaves mold or composted bark.
  • Ferns need both moisture and good drainage, so a good, rich mulch helps considerably.
  • Plant your fern shallowly, with the crown flush with the surrounding soil and keep garden debris away from the base.
  • In spring, apply a new layer of mulch for the new growing year.
