Maidenhair Fern is one of the most beautiful and distinctive native ferns for any shade garden. Everything about this fern is delicate, from its its wiry dark-colored stems, to its fan shaped leaves whose pinnae radiate out in all directions and seem to float on thin air. This fern looks great in combination with just about anything!
