Dryopteris erythrosora var. prolifica is a unique lacy leaf form of the easy-to-grow and popular autumn fern. Each 2' tall, drought-tolerant, evergreen clump boasts lacily-cut, dark green foliage that emerges cinnamon-red. In humid climates, the fronds will produce new plantlets along the edges of the leaves...very cool! You'll love the texture as you weave Dryopteris erythrosora var. prolifica among other bold and narrow textured perennials in the woodland shade garden.
