This is a gorgeous hardy maidenhair fern, with elegant, lacy foliage on black stems that makes this maidenhair fern a standout, even among others in the genus. In addition, when new fronds emerge in early spring, they are bright bronze-pink.
It slowly creeps to produce a stunning yet delicate looking groundcover in light shade. It likes moist, humus rich soil with good drainage.
It is evergreen (in soft winters) and produces a new flush of soft-pink fronds in the spring.
