Shiny Bristle Fern – 6 Pack Of 1 Gallon Pots

---

---

One of those plants in the garden that folks just have to reach out and touch to make sure it’s real, the Shiny Bristle Fern is a little-known distinctive and beautiful perennial species that comes to us from the southern Japanese islands. It forms a slowly spreading clump of plastic-like, shiny dark green arching triangular fronds with black stems. New growth is lighter green. A long-lived hardy perennial that is evergreen in zones 9 and 10 or semi-evergreen in zones 7 and 8, the Shiny Bristle Fern provides excellent texture and shine in shady garden beds or pots, planters or other containers. 

Growing 12 to 20 inches tall and equally as wide, the Shiny Bristle Fern is ideal for use as an accent in small garden spaces or in groupings in garden beds or along paths and walkways. Excellent as a solo in small pots or as an accent combined with other shade-loving perennial plants in larger pots. Also nice in shady home foundation plantings and around garden ponds. A fine addition to fern gardens, rock gardens, woodland gardens and Asian theme gardens.

Note:  For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this fern variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
