Dryopteris Wallichiana Jurassic Gold. XL 7.5 Litre: Dryopteris wallichiana, commonly known as Wallich's wood fern, is a beautiful fern species native to the Himalayas and other mountainous regions of Asia. It is highly valued for its elegant and architectural fronds, which make it a popular choice for shaded gardens and woodland landscapes.
The fronds of Dryopteris wallichiana are characterised by their unique appearance. They are long, arching, and finely divided, giving them a delicate and lacy look. The fronds emerge in shades of light green and gradually mature to a darker green colour.
This fern is known for its ability to thrive in shaded areas, making it an excellent choice for gardens with limited sunlight. It prefers moist, well-drained soil and can tolerate a wide range of soil types. However, it is important to ensure that the soil does not become waterlogged, as this can lead to root rot.
Dryopteris wallichiana is a relatively low-maintenance fern. It does not require frequent watering once established, as it has good drought tolerance. However, regular watering during dry periods is recommended to keep the soil evenly moist.
