Dryopteris complexa

Family: Dryopteridaceae, Genus: Dryopteris

Description:

Dryopteris complexa is a semi-deciduous fern native to Europe and the US, known for its drought tolerance once established. It forms a moderately lacy-textured mound, making it a great companion to the robust female fern. This hybrid of D. affinis and D. filix-mas thrives in part sun to shade and is well-suited for dry shade gardens. Its resilience and adaptability make it a popular choice for gardeners looking to add texture to their landscapes.
