    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A Cistus find, growing on a stony cliff in the Redwood Belt right on the Curry County/Del Norte County line of Oregon/California. This forms a sheet with particularly long, narrow fronds, some 3" x 10" or more, and unlike many polypodes, will stay summer green if watered and not exposed to excessive heat. Great for shady patch in the garden or your next green wall project. Frost hardy to USDA zone 7, Shade to part sun.
