{"product_id":"dryopteris-australis-wood-fern-large-ferns","title":"Dryopteris australis","description":"\u003cp\u003eDryopteris x australis is a very rare East Coast American native...a naturally-occurring hybrid between Dryopteris x celsa and Dryopteris ludoviciana. The growth habit is dramatically upright with large, coarse, dark green, semi-evergreen fronds...reminiscent of a giant Christmas fern plugged into an electrical outlet! This is a very structural, deer-resistant fern for the moist woodland garden, eventually making a clump 4'+ tall x 2' wide. Although Dryopteris x australis is very tolerant of dry sites, a nice damp piece of ground will produce really spectacular results. Due to its sterility, propagation is limited to divisions. Our clonal offering was collected in 1982 by the late Dr. Larry Mellichamp, adjacent to the South Carolina Darlington Raceway, along Swift Creek.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWatch our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LEVL5xnyN88\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePlant Spotlight\u003c\/a\u003e video for more information. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21025452101,"sku":"3546","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Dryopteris-australis.i-3546.s-60940.r-1_f669a92b-ed5c-4d85-a394-772141d76698.jpg?v=1788981895","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/products\/dryopteris-australis-wood-fern-large-ferns","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
