Athyrium filix-femina / Lady Fern

Athyrium filix-femina commonly called Lady Fern, is a great choice for shady spots in your landscape. It will tolerate full sun also, as long as the soil is kept from drying out. In a shady spot, this fern tolerates drier soils better than others. Lady Fern features compound leaves that grow 2 to 3 feet tall with a similar spread.
