Product Details
Blechnum gibbum 'Silver Lady', or Silver Lady Fern, is a popular, compact dwarf tree fern known for its soft, lacy, silvery-green fronds forming a symmetrical rosette on a short black trunk, ideal for tropical gardens, containers, or indoors in part shade, needing consistent moisture but well-drained soil to prevent brown fronds. This elegant, fast-growing fern adds a touch of grace to sheltered, humid spots and is relatively low-maintenance, thriving in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil.
