Questions & Answers
I just received my order of 5 pack vIG Hardy Japanese Painted fern. My understanding is that these are perennials yet on the outside of each pot ii says premium annual. Before I plant these I want to make sure I got the correct order.
Hi Joanne, this is a great question. The Virgoro Fern Hardy Autumn is a perennial. It does best in USDA hardiness zones 3-8, so if you live in a hardiness zone other than 3 through 8, it may act as an annual. Happy planting!
What kind of fern is this?
Hi Leo9, thank you for your inquiry. This fern is a hardy autumn fern. It's a shade perennial hardy to zones 4-9. Happy spring!
