Noted for the straight, pure line of its fronds and its tropical appearance, Asplenium scolopendrium (Hart’s Tongue Fern) is an evergreen fern forming a pretty rosette of arching, strap-shaped, bright green fronds. Unusual for a fern, the fronds are undivided, giving the plant a substantial appearance. They remain lush and fresh-looking throughout the year. On mature fronds the underside is handsomely marked with conspicuous brown stripes, the sori that contain the spores of the plant. Recipient of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society. Part sun to full shade.
