Blechnum spicant "Deer Fern"

Some fun facts: As you might expect, deer fern satisfies the hunger of deer and other forest dwelling animals especially during winter. It also provides year-round cover for small birds and mammals, insects, and other little creatures. Some birds may use the leaves as nesting material.

These cuties, can find home in your urban or suburban garden given adequate shade and/or moisture. Tuck it into under native evergreen trees and other moist, mossy areas rich with organic matter and well-protected by a nice thick layer of fallen leaves that will help retain moisture and be broken down by fungus and microscopic organisms, slow-releasing soil nutrients over time.
