Description

Excellent for garden beds, pots or as a year round houseplant, the Korean Rock Fern is a long-lived evergreen to semi-evergreen charmer adorned with black stems and delicately laced bright green fronds that mature to deep green. At only 15 to 18 inches tall and equally as wide forming an attractive, neat tuft, this low-growing fern is a perfect fit as an accent in shady smaller garden spaces or a low border or groundcover in garden beds or along paths and walkways. Winner of the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society, this refined beauty is an attractive asset in the shade garden.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 12 to 18 inches tall and equally as wide, the Korean Rock Fern is ideal for use in garden beds or indoor or outdoor containers. It is ideal for use as an accent in small garden spaces or in groupings or as a groundcover in garden beds or along paths and walkways. Excellent as a solo in small outs or as an accent combined with other shade-loving perennial plants. Also nice in shady home foundation plantings and around garden ponds. A fine addition to fern gardens, rock gardens, woodland gardens and Asian theme gardens.

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6a, where this fern variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences
