Dryopteris championii (Champion's Wood Fern)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 5-8 24" tall Origin: China, Japan, Taiwan

Dr. John Mickel describes D. championii as "another of my favorite ferns." This vigorous deer-resistant clump-former has dark green, glossy, arching fronds that can reach nearly 3' long. Not only is D. championii evergreen, but the old fronds remain upright throughout the winter months...all bets are off if you have too much winter precipitation! Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
