DESCRIPTION
Cryptomium fortunei, commonly known as Fortune’s holly fern, showcases deeply lobed, glossy green fronds that resemble holly leaves, lending a rich texture to shaded areas. The fronds grow in an upright, arching habit and develop a robust appearance as they mature, making this fern a standout choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or even as a container specimen. Its foliage remains attractive year-round, offering vibrant greenery through every season.
Native to East Asia, specifically China and Japan, Cryptomium fortunei is well-suited to climates with moderate shade and cooler temperatures. Its resilience and adaptability to low-light conditions make it a favorite in shaded garden areas where it brings a lush, green presence. With its sculptural foliage, this fern contributes both structure and a hint of exotic charm to any garden space.
