      SKU: 1328 Tassel Fern – Elegant Texture for Shaded Spaces in a 4" Pot

      Tassel Fern (Polystichum polyblepharum) is a refined, evergreen fern known for its lustrous, dark green fronds that unfurl gracefully with golden-brown, tassel-like tips. Native to East Asia, this low-maintenance plant brings lush, year-round greenery to woodland gardens, shaded borders, and containers. Its arching, symmetrical form and slightly glossy texture add sophistication and soft structure to shady landscapes, while remaining resistant to common pests and wildlife.

      A lustrous fern that is sure to lend an elegant look to shaded gardens. Particularly beautiful when new fronds emerge stiffly, then droop backwards to form a tassel. Beautiful in mass plantings as a groundcover, especially under flowering shrubs. An herbaceous perennial.

      Key Features:

      • Color: Glossy dark green fronds with golden-bronze unfurling tips

      • Fragrance: Unscented

      • Wildlife Resistance: Resistant to deer and rabbits

      • Pest Resistance: Highly pest-resistant; rarely troubled by insects or disease

      • Planting Zones: Hardy in USDA zones 5–8

      • Sun Preferences: Prefers partial to full shade

      • Drought Tolerance: Moderate once established; prefers moist, well-drained soil

      • Size at Maturity: Reaches 18–24 inches tall and 24–30 inches wide

      • Planting Instructions (from a 3.5" pot):

        • Choose a shaded to partially shaded site with rich, humusy, well-draining soil

        • Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball

        • Plant at soil level, backfill gently, and water thoroughly

        • Keep soil evenly moist during the first growing season

        • Apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds, but avoid covering the crown

        • No pruning necessary—remove damaged fronds in early spring if needed

      Tassel Fern is perfect for adding lush texture and structure to shady gardens, offering year-round elegance with minimal effort.
