Blechnum fluviatile - Water Fern


Blechnum fluviatile Water Fern ground new zealand evergreen
Origin: New Zealand

Really unusual evergreen fern that has very distinctive pinnae. The sterile green fronds (up to 50cm long) are practically horizontal with the brown sporing fronds being erect in the centre of the crown. The scales on the rachis are dark brown and very distinguishing.

It will form a small, very slender trunk over time. Like many of the New Zealand natives, it prefers a damp sheltered site and will form a very attractive clump (spreading rhizomes) over time.

I have it at the base of a Dicksonia antarctica and it provides all year interest. It has proved hardy to date and an easy fern to grow.
