Plant of the Day

Tuesday 6 January 2015


Late afternoon winter sunshine causes the old foliage of Osmunda regalis (Royal fern) to glow. This deciduous fern

grows well by water producing a clump of simple bipinnate fronds. It was popular with Victorian era gardeners and large specimens can often be found on the edge of ponds in older gardens.
