Set 20 Cinnamon Ferns (Bare Root)

Enhance Your Garden with Cinnamon Ferns

Set 20 Cinnamon Ferns (Bare Root) are perfect for creating lush, multi-dimensional landscapes. Known scientifically as Osmundastrum cinnamomeum, these ferns thrive in zones 4-9 and are native to moist habitats across eastern North America.

These ferns are characterized by their striking dual-frond structure, with cinnamon-colored fertile fronds contrasting beautifully against vibrant green sterile fronds. They can reach heights of up to 4 feet, making them an excellent choice for adding height and texture to garden beds and borders.

With their short creeping rhizomes, Cinnamon Ferns can be easily divided, allowing gardeners to expand their plantings effortlessly. With proper care and moisture, these ferns will grow larger each year, reaching maturity in about four years.

For optimal growth, plant the tubers 1-2 inches deep in well-drained, compost-rich soil. Keep the soil lightly moist to encourage robust growth, and apply mulch in winter to protect against frost. When planted in late summer or fall, the ferns will go dormant but will re-emerge the following spring, ensuring long-lasting beauty.
