Native to the USA Polystichum acrostichoides is a easy-to-grow  fern with sturdy, dark evergreen fronds emanating from a central point, making a 60cm wide clump, particularly effective when used in drifts. The fronds first emerge upright, then flatten with age. Christmas fern is one of the finest of all evergreen ferns and even retains its attractive appearance all winter, superb for woodland gardens, especially those with deep shade areas.
