Dryopteris goldiana
Goldie's Wood Fern
Common Name: Goldie's Wood FernLatin Name: Dryopteris goldieana Soil: Moist but well drained Position: Partial shade or full shade Hardiness: Hardy Eventual height/spread: 1m/0.6mSpecial feature: Bright golden green frondsThe ‘Goldieana’ is a vibrant fern that would make a welcome addition to any garden. The bipinnate fronds are golden green in spring, summer and autumn, giving a real splash of verdant colour to a bed or border. Like most ferns, the Goldie’s Wood enjoys a shady spot, making this the perfect choice for brightening a darker area of your garden. This fern makes a great foil for any dark plant, but we think it looks particularly dazzling alongside the dark and feathery fronds of the Polystichum setiferum proliferum.

Matteuccia struthiopteris
Shuttlecock Fern
Common name: Shuttlecock FernLatin Name: Matteuccia struthiopterisSoil: Moist but well drained Position: Partial shade or full shade Hardiness: Hardy Eventual height/spread: 1.5m/1mSpecial feature: A verdant fern with shuttlecock-like fronds The feathery foliage of the Matteuccia struthiopteris makes this a really attractive plant; the fronds are a healthy green colour and are formed in erect rosettes. In spring the fronds unfurl from brown shoots and they hold their colour throughout summer and autumn. This fern is fairly upright in habit and grows to a decent size, so plant it with this in mind and give it enough room to thrive. We love this at the side of water or as part of a woodland theme.

Polystichum Dahlem
Soft Shield Fern
Common name: Soft Shield FernLatin Name: Polystichum setiferum Dahlem Soil: Any moist but well-drained Position: Full shade or partial shade Hardiness: Hardy Eventual height/spread: 0.8m/0.6mSpecial feature: Fronds that are more upright than most in the speciesThe ‘Dahlem’ is a great choice for structural planting as the fronds are more upright than most others, making this a majestic garden feature. The fronds are divided into fresh, bright green pinnae that add a real splash of colour. This soft shield fern is an evergreen so it’s perfect for brightening up a shady border all year round. This is a simple, yet very elegant, variety and it works really well as part of a naturalistic planting scheme or a woodland style garden. Plant it alongside a darker fern, like the Dryopteris ‘Lepidota Cristata’, for contrasting colours and textures.
