Add a prehistoric and luminous touch to the shaded areas of your garden with the spectacular Dryopteris 'Jurassic Gold'. This award-winning fern is a modern garden essential, famous for its extraordinary colour-changing foliage.

In spring, the new fronds emerge in a stunning, vibrant shade of golden-orange and copper, creating a dramatic contrast against the older green growth. As the season progresses, these fronds mature into a rich, lustrous green. Supplied established in a large 3L nursery pot, this hardy perennial is perfect for brightening up dark borders, woodland gardens, or as an architectural feature in a shaded patio container.

Key Features:

• Dramatic Spring Colour: New fronds emerge in bright gold and orange, providing a unique burst of light in shaded spots.

• Architectural Structure: Upright, shuttlecock-shaped habit adds height and elegance to the garden floor.

• Shade Specialist: One of the finest plants for north-facing borders and deep shade where other plants struggle.

• Hardy & Resilient: Extremely tough and reliable, capable of withstanding the British winter with ease.

• Low Maintenance: Requires very little care; simply tidy up old fronds in late winter to make way for the new golden growth.

Planting & Care Instructions:

• Position: Thrives in partial shade to full shade. Avoid direct midday sun which can scorch the delicate fronds.

• Soil: Prefers moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter (humus).

• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the first growing season and dry spells.

• Maintenance: In late winter or early spring, cut back the old, tattered fronds to the ground to allow the new "Jurassic Gold" growth to emerge cleanly.
