How To Plant Lady In Red Lady Fern

Plant your Lady in Red Fern in well-drained but evenly moist, organic soil for best performance. It thrives in full to partial shade and be sure to add a layer of mulch around the base to keep the roots cool in a hot summer!

Got deer? Ferns are usually a safe bet where deer are a problem. They provide needed greenery in the shady woodland garden spaces where deer may come looking for a meal, but deer tend to leave them alone. Lady in Red Lady Fern is troubled by few pests of any kind and is relatively carefree.

How To Water

Water weekly to ensure the soil remains moist. Regular irrigation is important for lush growth, especially if plants are competing with tree roots for water. The Lady in Red Fern can tolerate dry spells once established, but it does prefer consistent moisture.

How To Fertilize

Feed your Lady in Red Fern Elements Starter Plant food when freshly planted to be sure she has plenty of nutrients to grow her lush foliage. After the first year, you should fertilize in spring.

How To Prune

In Spring, remove the old fronds after the new growth has begun to emerge. Be sure to divide the clumps every two to three years to avoid overcrowding and maintain plant health.
