Ursula's Red Japanese Painted Fern is a striking high-contrast deciduous fern with twisting shimmering silver fronds that have deep wine red centers giving it a ‘ruffled look’. Best color with part shade and rich, moist well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
*Deciduous ferns may still be dormant until late spring. This will appear that we've delivered a pot full of dirt however a healthy robust fern is awaiting inside.
