About
Cheilanthes is an exception to most ferns, in prefering full sun to semi shade. It is a great fern for rock gardens or a pot. It forms a low tufted clump with grey-green fronds covered with rust coloured hairs. It is evergreen and will grow to 40cm in height.
Origin
South-eastern USA
Planting and care
Plant in a sunny to semi shaded position and in a gritty, well drained soil. If the area you are planting on is dry, or you are planting in summer make sure it is watered well until it is established. You should not need to feed your ferns in the garden, but a good mulch will help greatly.
