Fern-P. Christmas

 

Fern-P. Christmas (Polystichum acrostichoides) is a native, fountain-shaped evergreen fern valued for its long-lasting, leathery fronds and tidy habit. Christmas Fern features loosely packed, dark green fronds that rise from the base in a graceful, arching fountain form. In spring, the young fiddleheads are silvery-scaled and add an extra layer of interest before fully unfurling.

This evergreen fern performs best in part sun and rich, well-drained soil. Fern-P. Christmas is a reliable, low-maintenance choice for shade gardens, woodland borders, and naturalized areas where consistent year-round greenery is desired.
