Rarely offered is this stunning tropical fern. The fronds are brilliant red in spring as they emerge, turning green as they mature.
The stalks remain a beautiful red and complement the green of the fronds perfectly. It may well be fully hardy in warmer climates or sheltered positions, particularly London and Cornwall.

We don’t have many and they are likely to go quickly, so do call us and reserve one!

Care: Tender. Not fully hardy. Wet/dry – moist shade or semi-shade, preferably on the wet side.
