- About Western Sword Fern
Western Sword Fern, is a robust evergreen fern native to the Pacific Northwest. It features glossy, leathery, dark green fronds that can grow up to 4-5 feet tall, forming vigorous clumps. Preferring partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soils, this fern is hardy in zones 5-9. Its upright, vase-like habit and tolerance for various conditions make it an excellent choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and naturalized areas. The lime-colored new growth in spring gradually matures to a deep green, adding year-round interest to the landscape.
Size Information: This plant comes in a one gallon pot.
