Description Fine Print
 
Deer fern (Blechnum spicant) is a beautiful BC native fern for shady moist places. It has two types of fronds, vegetative and reproductive. The vegetative fronds form an attractive, evergreen rosette of broadly spreading, glossy fronds that rise at 45 degree angles eventually laying horizontally along the ground. Later in the season a set of finer textured, vertical, spore-bearing fronds arise from the centre of this rosette. BC is blessed with beautiful native ferns among which deer fern must surely be included.
