Japanese Painted Fern 1G

Silvery, Color-Washed Fronds with Elegant Shade-Garden Beauty

Introducing Japanese Painted Fern, a beloved perennial prized for its uniquely colored fronds brushed in shades of silver, soft green, and deep burgundy. The arching, finely divided foliage brings a painterly, almost metallic effect to shaded gardens, creating visual interest from spring through fall. Slow spreading and well-mannered, this fern is ideal for woodland gardens, shade borders, and container plantings. Grown in a 1-gallon pot, it offers a strong, landscape-ready start.
