Maidenhair Fern seasonal highlights — a year in review

I've been growing Maidenhair Fern for a full year now and want to capture what each season offered. early emergence from the soil before most other plants in spring was the clear high point — everything you're told about Maidenhair Fern at that time of year is true. But the plant has something to offer in every season, which I hadn't expected.

prehistoric elegance with delicate layered fronds is consistent throughout the year, which is one of its real strengths. I've settled on a woodland garden understorey planting as the ideal position. misting the fronds in dry centrally heated rooms was the lesson I took into next year. scale insects on the undersides of fronds is the only thing that interrupted the enjoyment. Otherwise: excellent.
