Korean Rock Fern

Polystichum tsus-simense

I’ve had this fern for years and have never really been impressed with its performance. I just now (2021) looked at the nursery tag which states ‘Best in light shade’, so maybe it’s time to move it to a brighter spot!

    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!
