Japanese Shield Fern Care & Information
The lacey fronds of the Japanese Shield Fern add color, dimension, and texture to your space. Newly unfurled fronds start off copper or bronze, then mature to deep green, earning the plant its nickname, Autumn Fern. It is relatively easy-going for a fern but is happiest in high humidity and indirect light, mimicking the environment of Asia’s cool and shady forests it is native to.
- Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range
- Small plant measures between 4-8" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
- Arrives in a nursery grow pot nestled in your planter choice
