Adiantum - Maidenhair Ferns

Undemanding and very decorative indoor and out, Adiantum (Maidenhair Fern) can be deciduous or evergreen ferns with shiny dark stems and finely divided fronds. Their leaflets are mostly fan-shaped, bright green and tissue-thin. Forming spreading clumps over time, they are colorful accents among swaths of low-growing shade plants, or as edging plants near ponds or pools.

Adiantum aleuticum (Maidenhair Fern)

Incredibly attractive, Adiantum aleuticum (Maidenhair Fern) is a deciduous or semi-evergreen, perennial fern with graceful, bright green fronds which open like the fingers of a hand atop upright, shiny, purple-black wiry stems. Each finger is further divided into a series of triangular segments (pinnules).
