Adaptable and evergreen, this native tolerates such a wide range of landscape conditions that it is a must for the American Beauties garden. While it will thrive in very moist circumstances, Christmas Fern is a godsend to dry, shady spots as its low profile, wide spreading, deep glossy green fronds will grow in these harsh conditions and still look lush. A mass planting of this fern makes a strong, beautiful landscape statement but, whether planted in groups or alone, it still provides great year round cover to numerous valuable landscape critters and constant greenery to the garden, even in winter.
