Description

Providing gorgeous color and easy-care all year long, adding the Wood Fern to your landscaping provides a coppery-orange color when new foliage grows in, some reddish or purple fronds in Fall and even red spore clusters beneath the fronds throughout the season; even through Winter in areas where there is no frost. Growing its best in shade and planted in moist, well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter, adding compost to the soil before planting your Wood Fern will allow it to grow to its full potential of 2 feet tall and wide. Deer, rabbit and disease resistant, you won’t have to worry about pests ruining your Wood Ferns so they keep looking lovely a long, long time. For an attractive, easy to care for plant that adds a woodland garden feel to your outdoor space, you won’t find a more fitting plant variety than the Wood Fern.

Shipping & Returns

Shipping:

Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.

When to Ship:

We can ship out plants at anytime of the year pruned or not pruned, cold or not cold. Each plant’s durabilty is different so we recommend having them shipped in their designated season but we will still ship your plant to you earlier if you choose so.

Returns:

Because plants are perishable they cannot be returned without prior permission. We work hard to ensure all plants arrive healthy, but on rare occasions issues with the plant health upon delivery do arise.

Every single shipped plant is healthy upon departing our facility but if a plant is received in poor health contact us immediately so that we can assess the problem and work on saving the plant. We will first need a photo of the plant to start a claim. If we determine your plant cannot be recovered we will send you a replacement immediately. If notified of the plants health within 4 days we will send a replacement 100% free of charge.

If you determine the plant not to be healthy 4 days after delivery you can contact us and we will issue a 50% store credit.

30 days after delivery we cannot be held responsible for the current health of the plant.
