Lady Fern 'Lady in Lace'
Resembling parsley, Athyrium filix-Femina ‘Lady in Lace’ (Lady Fern) is a small deciduous fern forming a clump of upright fronds, heavily frilled and ruffled. Easy to grow and perfect for filling gaps between shrubs or under trees. Plant this interesting fern in drifts and underplant with small, early flowering bulbs, such as snowdrops (Galanthus), as these will appear before the fronds, extending the season of interest of your planting.
