Fern, Male

MALE FERN Dryopteris filix‑mas
• A classic, hardy fern with upright, arching fronds that create a full, vase‑shaped clump. Fronds are bright to deep green and have a clean, finely divided texture.
• One of the most cold‑tolerant and adaptable ferns, thriving in woodland gardens, shaded borders, and moist, humus‑rich soils.
• Tolerates drier shade better than many ferns once established, though consistent moisture keeps it looking lush.
• Non‑spreading clump former (not invasive), making it easy to place among hostas, astilbes, and other shade perennials.
• Part Shade to Full Shade
• Zone 2, 45–75 cm Height × 45–60 cm Width
