Thelypteris decursive–pinnata, the Japanese Beech Fern, is an attractive Asian species with  light chartreuse green fronds, very upright in habit. This is a spreader, but a slow and steady one, unlike some near relatives that can be borderline invasives. It naturalizes beautifully in open woods.

Thelypteris kunthii is a native fern species that actually loves the heat and humidity of the South. The fronds are attractive and airy. This is a fairly aggressive spreader and especially in moist areas will provide quick cover - definitely not to be turned loose on a small or formal garden.

Speaking of borderline invasives, Thelypteris palustris, the Marsh Fern, is a very vigorous spreading mid-sized fern with blue green fronds. As the name implies it will tolerate wetness and can even be grown in full sun with sufficient moisture. Not appropriate for small gardens but in the right spot with room to run it can be attractive.

Nursery Propagated Ferns - We do not sell ferns, or any other plants for that matter, that have been collected in the wild. All of our ferns have been nursery propagated. This not only protects wild populations, but potted, nursery propagated ferns are much easier to establish in the garden than plants dug in the wild and shipped bareroot.
