18-24" tall x 24-36" wide. Hay-Scented Fern is a lush, naturalizing fern that can cover some ground! Delicate, lacy fronds emit a fresh-mown grass smell when brushed, and its bright green foliage turns a golden-russet color in fall. Use it to fill in open spaces or gaps in greenery. It’s a pushy neighbor though, so don’t plant it amongst delicate plants; place it where it has room to spread and grow. Deer resistant and easy-care, Hay-Scented Fern likes well-drained, moist soil. As with many ferns, if the soil is kept consistently moist, this one can even tolerate full sun, although it will look its best with some shade. Native to the open woods east of the Mississippi.

"I managed to get the bares roots into pots just before they dried out from my own neglect. At first I thought I had missed my window but after a few weeks the shoots started appearing and by summer I had some healthy ferns. Unfortunately, the summer drought and milkweed bugs from a nearby plant totally destroyed the ferns before I got the chance to put them in the ground. Hoping this year I will be more attentive so I can add them under the trees in my yard."
"The roots were very thin and didn't appear vigorous when they arrived. One of them never emerged and the other one was diminutive and died before the end of June."
"The root stock was too tiny to thrive."
"My first caveat would be that the root clumps are VERY small. They're well packed but easy to lose in the moss packing. One bag turned out entirely moss and there was no stock to replace, but they refunded immediately. I'd say about 5/8have come up so far, be patient! It took over two weeks. I'm not sure if sending slightly more mature roots or larger portions would help, but the tiny one inch pieces seem to be the ones that haven't come up yet. I ordered a second set bare root with live growth somewhere else and those are doing MUCH better. Would be willing to try again next year, but hope they are a little more vigorous in the next batch."
