Athyrium niponicum Pictum 'Red Beauty'

Athyrium niponicum Pictum 'Red Beauty' is a beautiful fern that brings shimmering colour and dainty texture to shady garden corners or mixed woodland plantings. Its lacy, arching fronds unfurl with attractive silvery-green hues highlighted by contrasting burgundy-red stems and midribs, creating rich visual interest throughout the growing season. Plants form slowly spreading clumps offering excellent ground cover. This Japanese painted fern adds graceful form and striking foliage contrast to soften border edges, cascade over containers or creep through understorey plantings.Ultimate height: 30cm (12in). Ultimate spread: 50cm (20in).
