Autumn Fern 'Brilliance'

Bring year-round color and texture to shaded spaces with Autumn Fern ‘Brilliance’ (Dryopteris erythrosora ‘Brilliance’) — one of the most striking and versatile ferns available. New fronds emerge in a stunning coppery-orange to red color before maturing to glossy, deep green, creating a beautiful two-toned display throughout the growing season. This semi-evergreen fern is tough, adaptable, and exceptionally easy to grow, making it a go-to choice for shade gardens, woodland borders, and foundation plantings.
