Woodwardia fimbriata

The 'Giant Chain fern' from NW America is potentially one of the biggest evergreen ferns we can grow in the UK. Rare until very recently, this elegant giant can send it's bright, fairly matt-green fronds up to 2m high. For a sheltered, shady position in humus rich soil, not too dry. I've witnessed the beauty of this fern in the Santa Lucia Mountains of California.
