Description
Showy vase shaped fern that can grow 3 to 4 feet tall. They make excellent specimen plants for the woodland garden. It can be found growing in wooded wetlands, but it’s just as or more often found growing on the dryer edges of those wetlands, and even in well drained upland soils. Interrupted fern will tolerate a bit more sun than its cousin, cinnamon fern. So named because the fertile, spore bearing modified pinnae (leaflets) interrupt the neat rows of non-fertile pinnae. Grows from a black, thick, ropey rhizomes that spreads out over time forming loose colonies. Interrupted fern can be found in North America and Asia.
Well developed one gallon sized plants for $20 each.
