Description

The Mother Fern is an evergreen fern with lacy, light green fronds that reach 3' in height, often with miniature "babies" produced along the margins of the fronds. It should receive part sun to shade, with average watering. It is not frost hardy, and like most ferns, does excellent in containers. -Monterey Bay Nursery

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
