Athyrium niponicum 'Silver Falls' pp12803
Japanese Painted Fern
Noted for its shimmering silver fronds with contrasting dark maroon midribs. The deeply divided, arching fronds form clumps of large rosettes and unlike other painted ferns, this one intensifies its silvering as the season progresses. 2012 winner of the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit.
