Lovely fern

(1/1)

Brian Ellis:
Could one of you expert fernatics tell me what this one is please?  It was growing at the base of a wall in East Ruston Old Vicarage, I managed to bump into Alan Gray, but he couldn't remember offhand and the label had been appropriated!  I thought it was lovely as the downward pointing leaflets (?) gave it such a wonderful texture.

annew:
Polystichum setiferum "Plumosomultilobum'. I thought it was mine, just expanding in an almost identical position!

Tim Ingram:
Isn't it lovely Brian. After your post I had a look at 'Polystichum Cultivars' by J. W. Dyce (from BPS) and saw all sorts of wonderful variants of setiferum, but this one must be one of the most attractive.

Brian Ellis:
Thanks Anne, yes Tim it is beautiful, I will look out for one!
