New York Fern 1 Live Plant – Parathelypteris noveboracensis – 1 Gallon Pot

New York Fern (Parathelypteris noveboracensis, also known as Thelypteris noveboracensis) is a deciduous perennial fern native to eastern North America. It is valued for its soft, light green foliage and delicate, finely divided fronds, which bring natural texture to shaded gardens and woodland landscapes.

This fern is recognized by its graceful fronds, which taper toward both the tip and the base. It spreads through underground rhizomes and can gradually form attractive colonies in suitable woodland conditions. New York Fern is well suited to native plant gardens, woodland borders, naturalized shade gardens, and mixed fern plantings.

This listing includes one live New York Fern in a 1 gallon nursery pot. The plant generally prefers partial shade to full shade and moist, organically rich, well-drained soil. As a deciduous fern, it naturally loses its foliage during winter and may arrive dormant or with reduced foliage depending on the season.
