Sensitive Fern is a large coarse deciduous fern native to the wet woods of Eastern North America. The leaflets are leathery and bright green with distinctive netted veining and short woody fronds that go up in late summer and persist till winter. Best in part sun and moist well-drained soil. Sensitive to drought and frost.
*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.
