Dennstaedtia punctilobula - Hayscented Fern

The quickest spreading fern we grow, spreads by underground runners. Will grow in sun or shade, wet or dry, a very versatile fern. Fronds are light green and turn gold yellow before going dormant for the winter. When you crush the stems in the fall it smells like dry hay hence the common name. This fern is very much in demand because of the way it spreads and the fact it will grow in sun or shade. Do keep in mind when planted in the sun it will turn brown in August.

Sun or Shade, Wet or Dry Soil, 2-3 ft Tall, Zones 3-9
