Dryopteris tokyoensis
Tokyo Wood Fern
Item #: 3650
Zones: 5a to 8b, possibly colder
Dormancy: Winter
Height: 36" tall
Origin: Japan, Korea
Pot Size: 3.5" pot (24 fl. oz/0.7 L)
The Tokyo wood fern is one of those little known, but splendid, deciduous woodland ferns, native to woodlands from Honshu to Shikoku and across to Korea. Similar to a dwarf Dryopteris x celsa, the tight, 3' wide, deer-resistant clump of upright, narrow, 3' long fronds provide a nice vertical accent in the woodland garden. We think Dryopteris tokyoensis is an easy-to-grow and distinctive deer-resistant fern for the woodland shade garden.
