Overview

When they first emerge in spring, the fronds of this unusual new variety are an eye-catching golden orange, but as they mature and develop a spreading habit, their colour changes to light green. Discovered by Bob Hollister at Country Garden Plants near the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, this award-winning fern will liven up a shady border - and can also be potted for the patio.

Care guide

Incorporate lots of well rotted leaf mould, composted pine needles of garden compost into the planting hole. Cut back dead fronds in winter.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
