Fortune’s Cold Hardy Fern Fortune’s Cold Hardy Fern brings dependable color and structure to shaded areas where other plants fall short. Its upright, leathery fronds hold their shape and color beautifully—even into winter in mild climates. Ideal beneath trees, around shrubs, or in shaded containers, this fern delivers season-spanning texture with very little upkeep.

Grows Where Others Struggle
Shade, wind, and even poor soil don’t faze this fern. Once established, it performs reliably in challenging spots—perfect for gardeners working with tough shade conditions.

Fresh Foliage with Minimal Effort
The fronds grow in a clean, arching shape and stay attractive with almost no maintenance. In most climates, just one late-winter trim prepares it for another strong season.

An Evergreen Presence in Milder Zones
In areas with moderate winters, this fern holds its foliage year-round, adding contrast and life when other perennials go dormant.

Smart Pairing for Shade-Loving Companions
Pair with plants like Brunnera or Pulmonaria to create layered, textured shade borders that feel cohesive and full—without constant care.
