Fern 'Kimberly Queen' 6"

Nephrolepis obliterata
Also known as the Sword Fern, due to its fronds being straight and narrow, this fern is easy to grow. The dark green fronds are perfect for adding tropical texture to shaded decks, patios, and other outdoor living areas. It's particularly striking in large containers as a specimen plant, but also plays well with other shade-loving tropicals including gingers, heliconias, and caladiums. Or, pair it with traditional shade-loving annuals such as New Guinea impatiens, golden sweet potato vine, or begonias. Low in maintenance, this plant grows well in containers. It grows 3 feet tall and the mature fronds develop attractive spots (spores) on the undersides of each leaf. The plant does not tolerate cold temperatures, so use it as an outdoor plant during the summer months in Northeast Ohio and move it inside for the fall and winter. Requires fertilizer only once or twice a year!
