Discount Price:  18.99

The Sensitive Fern, Onoclea sensibilis, is a large, somewhat coarse deciduous fern which occurs in wet woods and thickets and in moist soils along streams and springs. Sensitive Ferns can grow up to 4' tall. It features long stalked, deeply pinnatifid, bright green, vegetative sterile fronds 2 4' long with leathery, triangular leaflets pinnae which have distinctively netted veins. It is best not to remove dead fronds until spring, because they provide protection for the crowns over the winter.
