Toothed Wood Fern is a hardy shade-loving fern known for its robust arching fronds forming a reliable shade clump. Toothed Wood Fern carries green foliage through the season and performs best in part shade with moderate watering once established. This fern matures to roughly 2-3 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide. It is ideal for layering beneath trees and shrubs where little else will grow, offering lush texture in difficult shaded spots. Hardy to zones 3-8 and simple to care for, it settles in quickly and performs year after year. A layer of mulch helps hold moisture and keeps roots cool in summer.
