Alaska Fern

Overview

The Alaska Fern, or Polystichum setiferum, is a perennial fern recognizable by its lacy, finely divided fronds that extend up to 2-3 feet long. This species thrives in partial to full shade and prefers moist, well-draining soil, enriching woodland gardens with its feathery texture. Hardy in zones 5-8, it's a robust addition providing year-round interest. Ideal for a tranquil, green backdrop or as a graceful understory plant.
