Boasts large, showy foliage and excellent cold hardiness.
We're proud to offer this incredible, award-winning fern with arching, finely dissected fronds that resemble ostrich tail feathers! After the first fronds die back in early to midsummer, the next round of leaves will be a darker shade of green and then, in autumn, turn a shiny bronze-gold hue. A past winner of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Matteuccia struthiopteris
