Himalayan Maidenhair Fern

Adiantum venustum

This is a great fern, and has almost become as big as a shrub. I feel like it could be divided at some point soon, but it looks great at its current size and I’m hesitant to change that!

    About Me

    Hi! I'm Lorie and I wrangle plants in a muddy, feral shade garden in the Pacific Northwest. I built this site to serve as a gardening journal and quasi-accurate record of planting successes and failures. My goal is to help "future me" be a better gardener. I hope what I've learned along the way can be useful to you too. Thanks for visiting!
