'TASSEL FERN' (Polystichum polyblepharum)

A lustrous fern that is sure to lend an elegant look to shaded gardens. Particularly beautiful when new fronds emerge stiffly, then droop backwards to form a tassel. Beautiful in mass plantings as a ground cover, especially under flowering shrubs. An herbaceous perennial.

Zones 6-8  

Not reliably hardy in the Champlain Valley.
