Harts tongue fern

UK Native: Yes

Height: Short

A beautiful form of the Hart’s tongue fern that prefers shaded areas. It is best grown in a sheltered position under trees or among rocks. The foliage is attractively ‘crimped’ at the edges. Good for a damp, shaded area in a wild garden. It will provide year round interested and requires very little attention. Height to 30 cm. This plant is also suitable for the Pondside/Bog garden. Place around the edge of a pond, providing soil is damp and not waterlogged. Alternatively plant in damp areas of the garden.
