| 195 | Adiantum pedatum (Northern Maidenhair Fern) |
part sun, shade | 1-2 ft | moist | One of the most delicate looking of our native ferns and a great foil for bold-leaved plants. Slowly spreading. Keep well watered and shaded until roots have established. Appreciates limestone. | A, H | |
| 197 | Athyrium filix-femina var. angustum (Lady Fern) |
part sun, shade | 2 ft | moist | Elegant and adaptable fern with fine soft fronds. Under good conditions, several flushes of fronds are produced in a season. Spreads slowly. | A, H |
|
| 198 | Athyrium filix-femina var. angustum forma rubellum (Red-stemmed Lady Fern) |
part sun, shade | 2 ft | moist | Spore from an excellent selection made by our friend John Lynch. Habit is typical, but the frond stem (rachis) is a deep burgundy, contrasting beautifully with the green foliage. | A, H |
|
| 200 | Dennstaedtia punctilobula (Hayscented Fern) |
sun to shade | 18-24 in | moist to dry | A foolproof fern that will fill in and soften a tough site quickly. Lovely spring-green fronds turning a pleasing wheat-yellow in autumn. Very aggressive so reserve it for naturalizing in dry shade. | A, H |
|
| 201 | Diplazium pycnocarpon (Glade Fern) |
shade | 2-3 ft. | moist neutral | Graceful clumping fern with tall narrow fronds. New fronds are produced all season and keep the plant looking crisp and fresh. Slowly spreading. Uncommon and distinctive. | A, H | |
| 202 | Dryopteris campyloptera (Mountain Wood Fern) |
shade | 2 ft | moist | A unique and beautiful species with broad triangular foliage. Considered one of our finest ferns for ornamental use provided it has a moist shaded location. | A, H |
