About the American
Maidenhair Fern :
The American Maidenhair Fern, Adiantum pedatum,
is a deciduous, clump-forming fern which typically
grows 1.5 to 2' tall and is most frequently found on
rich wooded slopes, ravine bottoms and damp shady
woods. American Maidenhair Ferns prefer moist, shady
conditions, but will grow in sunnier spots if kept
moist. It features finely-textured, somewhat frilly
fronds which have curved stalks and are palmately-divided
(i.e., fronds divide into finger-like projections).
The Maidenhair will grow in colder areas if the
plant has good air circulation. This fern is a
perennial and is deciduous in colder climates. Wiry
stems are reddish-brown to black. Crosiers (coiled
young fiddleheads) emerge pink in spring. This is a
wetlands plant that does not flower or bloom. The
attractive foliage is showcased in container
plantings, foundation plantings, and groundcovers. |
