Dryopteris filix-mas 'Crispa Cristata' - Ferns- Perennial - 3lt
£16.50
Unit price perEstimated delivery between September 11 and September 13.
The Dryopteris filix‑mas ‘Crispa Cristata’, often called the crested male fern, is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking structure and texture in shaded or partially shaded areas. This hardy, semi‑evergreen fern thrives in moist, humus‑rich soils and is well suited to woodland gardens, shaded borders, or as an underplanting beneath trees and shrubs. Its strikingly frilled, crested fronds create an intricate, sculptural effect that brings a sense of movement and detail to any planting scheme.
Unlike many delicate ferns, ‘Crispa Cristata’ is robust and low maintenance, tolerating cold winters and recovering well each spring. Its dense growth habit forms attractive clumps that help suppress weeds, making it practical as well as ornamental. The plant’s refined, curled fronds look beautiful alongside hostas, heucheras, and other foliage plants, while its deep green color provides a calming backdrop to brighter flowers.
In smaller gardens, it works perfectly in pots or shaded corners where it can be appreciated up close. With minimal care,simply remove old fronds in late winter, it will reward you with year‑round elegance and a unique, timeless appeal.
