    Is an evergreen up to 2' tall. The new fronds appear late in the season. This lovely fern comes from Japan and has pretty bronze foliage.

    Koidzuma's wood fern is a distinguished evergreen highly regarded for its extremely intense burgundy colour in the new growth. This growth is very late in the season so it holds this colour well into summer.
