Hen and Chicken Fern
Asplenium bulbiferum, commonly known as Hen and Chicken Fern, is a distinctive fern species admired for its lush fronds and unique reproductive strategy. This perennial fern features glossy, dark green fronds that can reach up to several feet in length, forming a graceful, arching habit. Hen and Chicken Fern produces plantlets, known as bulbils, on the tips of its fronds, which can eventually root and form new plants. Thriving in partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil, this fern is ideal for shaded garden beds, borders, or as a container plant indoors or in covered outdoor spaces. Its attractive foliage and easy care make it a popular choice for adding greenery and texture to shaded areas of the garden.
