Wet areas can be a nightmare for gardening, but Cinnamon Fern turns this nightmare into a distant memory with its ability to thrive in this hostile plant environment. Big aggressive fronds emerge from the soil in spring and unfurl nearly upright to yellowish-green fronds that can stretch even to 4 or 5' tall depending on the area. Unique cinnamon brown fibers are found at the base of this plant and its fronds giving this plant a slightly different look and providing the basis for its name. Cinnamon Fern will tolerate sun or shade but needs ample soil moisture to make a go of it in the sun. This container size is exclusively offered to American Beauty program buyers!
