Thelypteris normalis var. lindheimeri coll. #A2T-025 (Lindheimer's Maiden Fern)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 7-9, possibly colder 24" tall Origin: USA

Web-Only! (aka: T. normalis A2T-025) This wonderful but virtually unknown deciduous fern is closely related to, if not the same as, T. kunthii. Scott Ogden took me to a road cut in Comal Co., TX, where this tough fern was growing quite well among the beer cans and remains of slow armadillos. For us, this particular form makes a very attractive patch (5' wide in 5 years) of thick, 2' tall x 6" wide, light green fronds. This has become one of our favorite and most durable garden ferns...even without the Texas roadside accessories. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
