DESCRIPTION
Cyrtomium falcatum 'Rochfordianum’ is an evergreen fern with glossy, dark green fronds that resemble holly leaves. The broad, leathery leaflets have gently serrated edges, giving the plant a bold, textural quality. Unlike flowering plants, this fern reproduces via spores on the underside of its fronds rather than producing blooms. Its elegant, arching foliage provides year-round interest, making it a valuable addition to shaded gardens.
This variety is widely regarded as the easiest Cyrtomium to grow, prized for its adaptability and low-maintenance nature. Unlike many ferns, 'Rochfordianum' is more drought-tolerant and requires less water than traditional varieties, making it a practical choice for gardeners seeking a resilient shade plant. It thrives in a range of conditions, from deep shade to partial sun, and is well-suited for woodland gardens, borders, or container plantings where evergreen texture is desired.
