Fiddlehead Fern
This product is rated 5.0 of 5.0 stars.
It has received 1 review.
Description
The Fiddlehead fern is a perennial that returns year after year. Its fantastic green color constantly improves the look of a house. The plant grows best in U.S.D.A. zones 3-9. It grows best in the shade and is about 4 feet high by mid-summer.
The Fonds Of The Fiddlehead Fern Reaches Up To 5 Feet Tall
The deciduous Fiddlehead Fern grows in circular clumps and spreads by underground runners. The large green ostrich plume-shaped fronds reach 5' before dying in the fall. The frond's leaflets are twice divided (bipinnate). A few weeks after the first green fronds appear in spring, brown spore-covered fronds emerge from the center.
Fiddlehead Ferns Spreds By Spores
They are smaller than the first green fronds and, in ideal conditions, can create new plants from these spores.
