Athyrium niponicum var. pictum (Japanese Painted Fern)

Japanese Painted Fern

Fronds emerge wine-red broadening to silver with wine-red stipes (leaf stem), very dramatic.

Growing & Maintenance Tips
Partial to full shade in moist humus-rich soil. It is important that the soil not dry out. Leaf scorch will occur in dry sites. Great plant for border plantings with other species, such as Hosta and Bergenia. It can also be utilized in the cool greenhouse for year round enjoyment.
