Fern Ostrich Matteuccia struth 1 gal

The ostrich fern is a large, stately perennial native to damp northern woodlands. It grows 3 to 5 feet tall in an elegant vase or shuttlecock shape with bright green fronds resembling ostrich plumes. Perfect for shaded, moist garden spots, this fern thrives in woodland settings and adds lush texture to landscaping. Spring shoots emerge as tightly curled fiddleheads, prized by foragers. Low-maintenance and cold-hardy, it's an excellent choice for naturalized plantings and shade gardens.
