The long green ribbons on this typical hart's tongue fern end in a large, frilled, flat crest in this commonly grown selection. A nice clump of the crested hart's tongue fern is a crowning achievement for the woodland gardener. The growth requirements are the same as for the species... near neutral to alkaline, gravelly soils, good drainage, and plenty of moisture.
