This lady fern suits shaded borders and damp ground, and it offers bright green fronds on dark red tinted stems for colour where light is limited. It carries the RHS Award of Garden Merit, a recognised mark of garden reliability. What you get: a pack of three plants, each supplied in a 9cm pot.
Athyrium otophorum var. okanum is a lady fern that pairs bright green fronds with dark red tinted stems, a combination that has earned it the RHS Award of Garden Merit. It's suited to shaded through to fully shaded positions, giving gardeners a foliage plant for spots that direct sun doesn't reach. Grown in damp, well-drained soil and a sheltered spot, it needs only occasional tidying of old foliage, and its medium pace of growth keeps upkeep straightforward. Each pack contains three plants, supplied individually in 9cm pots, enough to establish a small grouping in one planting session. It produces no flowers, so the appeal is entirely in its foliage colour and form rather than blooms.
