Hardy Fern Collection

Ferns can be a great option even for would-be gardeners who haven't felt they have a green thumb.

They're comparatively easier to raise and thrive in general compared to other types of plants, and they fit in well with yard schemes that might include patios, fencing, trees that need base area plantings, and of course patios and the ever-popular American barbecure grill space for family and friends to enjoy open space.

LandscapeUSA's offerings have included rich and zesty collections as their Hardy Fern Collection this past year, which included a splendid ten varieties: Cinnamon Fern, Christmas Fern, Hay-Scented Fern, Lady Fern, Leatherwood Fern, Maiden Hair Fern, Ostrich Fern, Royal Fern, Sensitive Fern, Toothed Wood Fern.

Quoting from their site:

"Whether used in borders or as a background, ferns enhance any garden with their gracefulness and their beautiful varying shades of green. Easy to grow almost anyplace. Thrive even when other plants fail. "

Here's further detail on some of the ferns included in this great collection

Christmas Fern (Polystichum Acrostichodes) is a very hardy evergreen fern of deep rich green color. Leaflets are lance-shaped in dense clusters. 24-36"

Cinnamon Fern (Osmunda Cinnamonea) is a handsome deep waxy green foliage which is deeply cut or laciniate. Thrives either in wet swampy or dry shady spots. 24-36"
