This fern is a garden staple, effortlessly adding lush greenery to shaded spots. While tolerant of sun and dry soil, it truly thrives in light shade with consistent moisture, making it an ideal choice for areas with dappled sunlight or beneath the canopy of trees. Its graceful, 1-meter fronds look stunning en masse under trees, creating a sense of depth and texture that is both visually appealing and soothing to the senses. The delicate, lacy fronds of the Hen and Chickens Fern are a sight to behold, with their intricate patterns and subtle color variations adding a touch of elegance to any garden or indoor space.

One of the most unique and rewarding aspects of this fern is its ability to produce ‘chicks’, or small, immature fronds that can be potted up to grow new plants. This process, known as division, allows gardeners to easily propagate the fern and share it with friends and family, making it a great choice for those looking to share their love of gardening with others. Easy to care for and endlessly rewarding, the Hen and Chickens Fern is a must-have for fern lovers and garden enthusiasts alike. With its low maintenance requirements and high potential for propagation, this fern is a great choice for anyone looking to add some greenery to their space without breaking the bank or committing to a lot of upkeep.“`
