Blechnum gibbum 'Silver Lady'

When compared to other tree ferns, 'Silver Lady' is downright petite, growing three to four feet tall and two to three feet wide at maturity. Its trunk is short, with long arching fronds coming up in a rosette formation. Use this fern as the "thriller" in combined planters while still small, but move it to its own pot as it grows larger, becoming an eye-catching specimen on its own. A well-lit room (or grow lights), higher humidity, and deep watering when the top inch of soil is dry will keep 'Silver Lady' happy and healthy. Move it outdoors when the temps are 60 degrees and above to add a tropical feel to the summer shade garden.
