Arachniodes simulans is a wide-ranging (Bhutan, India, China, Japan) fern that's found natively on moist forest slopes from 1,500' to 9,000' elevation. In the garden, it forms a slowly expanding clump of lacy foliage that's tardily deciduous. Our original plant of Chinese origin is now 15" tall x 2' wide.
