CYRTOMIUM falcatum 'Rochfordianum'
Hollyfern, Japanese Netvein Hollyfern
Japanese netvein holly fern is an evergreen to deciduous fern with fronds that are glossy and dark green with deeply cut edges resembling holly. 'Rochfordianum' leaflets have jagged leaf margins, giving it a fringed appearance. Large spore structures are visible on the undersides of fronds.
Grow in average to fertile, moist but well-drained soil with humus in shade or part shade. Where evergreen, Japanese Holly fern makes a rich, green groundcover in winter and summer. Holly fern is also an interesting specimen plant and makes an excellent houseplant. Do not plant too deeply and avoid a windy location.
