Product Description

Athyrium filix-femina ‘Frizelliae’ a/k/a Fern-Tatting Zones 4 to 8, perhaps zone 3; Part shade to full shade. Mature size 12 to 18 inch height, spreads 24to 36 inches.

‘Frizelliae’ is a dwarf, deciduous cultivar with narrow fronds on which the pinnae are rolled up tightly together instead of being open and lacy like other ferns. As a result, they look like delicate string of beads on a necklace. Plant it near the front of the border because every visitor to the garden is going to want to touch it!

Athyrium grows best in moist soil with a neutral to moderately acidic pH. Partial to full shade is best. To protect the crowns and tender shoots in the spring, it is best to leave the old fronds on the plant over the winter. They can be removed in the spring when the new fronds reach 6 inches tall. If division is necessary, do so in the spring. ‘Frizelliae’ will not come true if propagated from spores.

This is useful as a background plant in shade gardens and is also beautiful planted en masse along streams or woodland settings.
