Dryopteris labordei- Golden Mist Wood Fern 9cm £4.95
Evergreen. Eventual height to 60cm. Hardy to zone 5 USDA.
This is a very,very attractive fern and has surely the most evocative common name amongst ferns!! This fern hails from Japan, China and Korea. The young growth is an orange/gold, maturing to green. The fronds are smooth with a lovely gloss. This fern enjoys the same conditions as the autumn ferns (Dryopteris erythrosora) and adds that little bit of colour to the fernery. It does seem to be sensitive to light levels so should be planted in light shade. They are also very late to emerge, usually around mid June.

Dryopteris
From the Greek ‘Dryas’ (= Oak) and ‘Pteris’ ( = Fern). From the usual habitat of these ferns, deciduous woodland, especially Oaks.
A large genus of ferns mostly from temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. They are of great value to the gardener, most are robust, easy to grow and often dramatic. The evergreen varieties offer a wealth of interest to the winter garden adding structure and form during the winter months, decorative crosiers in the spring and colourful young fronds in some species. The deciduous varieties are also dramatic in the spring with scaled crosiers emerging from the soil.
