Planting and Growing Information

Plant Sensitive Fern in spring in moist, rich soils that retain consistent moisture. While adaptable to various light conditions, it performs best in part shade to full shade locations. The fern is cold-hardy across USDA zones 3-10, making it suitable for projects throughout most of North America. Fronds emerge in spring, creating lush green coverage through summer before turning brown with the first frost, while the distinctive fertile fronds persist through winter for multi-season interest.
