Godzilla Painted Fern is a large deciduous fern that has striking shimmering silver fronds with green highlights and dark purple stems. 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.
