Lush, textured & quietly dramatic—these ferns bring evergreen calm & layered foliage to shady corners.

Choose from three striking options: the fiery new fronds of Blechnum ‘Volcano’ that unfurl bronze-red before maturing to glossy green; the copper-gold seasonal flush of Dryopteris ‘Jurassic Gold’ which emerges warm-toned then ages to rich green; or the soft, lacy evergreen rosettes of the native Polystichum setiferum (Soft Shield Fern). Each variety offers strong architectural form—upright rosettes, arching fronds & year-round foliage—that enhances woodland borders, shaded patios & mixed planting schemes. 

Each plant is supplied as a healthy, fresh & fully established 3L rootball in its nursery pot, professionally grown in premium peat-free compost at our Yorkshire nursery. Larger and more robust than plug-grown stock, they arrive garden-ready with well-developed roots and lush foliage for quick establishment. Hardy, low-maintenance & naturally resilient, these ferns require only occasional tidy-up of old fronds and will reward you with lasting structure, seasonal colour shifts & tranquil evergreen presence.
