Description
Athyrium niponicum var. pictum is commonly called the Japanese Painted Fern - and for good reason! Its elegant fronds unfurl to an almost horizontal position, displaying their fabulous colouring to best effect. Each frond is palest silvery-grey, contrasting beautifully with its maroon-purple midribs. This exquisite deciduous fern has a low, creeping habit that gradually spreads to form wide groups. Perfect for damp, shaded spots in the garden where it will provide texture and interest on neutral to acid soils. A great choice for woodland gardens or the boggy soil at the edge of a shaded pond. Height: 30cm (12"). Spread: 120cm (47").

How to Grow
Plant Athyrium in sheltered, dappled shade in fertile, moist, acid or neutral, soil. Athyrium ferns prefer a soil that is rich in organic matter so add some well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil prior to planting. Japanese painted ferns require a reliably moist or boggy soil. Grow them in bog gardens or in the damp soil at the edge of ponds.

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info
Feed and water ferns regularly until they are fully established. Apply mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost around the crown of each plant in spring.
