The look and fine texture of a fern with the ability to thrive in full sun, SunFern Olympia has a lacey quality and a lovely medium-green hue. Use it to fill empty spaces or introduce texture in a mixed bed or along a border or edging. The height (one to two feet) is perfect for filling the space between short plants at the front of a bed and tall plants at the back. Or use as a filler in a container arrangement. This deer-resistant perennial grows in zones 4 through 9. Makes a beautiful ground cover underneath trees and shrubs, and does not need protection from hot sun. Photo courtesy of Ball Seed.
