This wonderful 12-18" tall x 24" wide, deciduous, clumping fern is sure to garner attention in the woodland garden. The purple, silver and green leaves (the horticultural rainbow coalition) blend well with a variety of companion plants... one of the finest ferns available. In cooler climates, they will also grow well in full sun.
