At this 7,900' elevation site in Hualien County, Pteris wallichiana made dramatic, tropical-looking, 8' tall specimens with bizarrely branching fronds. Pteris wallichiana 'Hualien Giant', a 2014 Plant Delights\/JLBG introduction, has been winter hardy in our zone 7b garden since 2009, where it only reaches 4' tall. Pteris wallichiana does spread a bit via thick underground rhizomes, so plant accordingly. While Pteris wallichiana has tolerated dry sites in our trials, it has grown much faster in rich, slightly moist organic soils.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21024456837,"sku":"2109","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/products\/Pteris-wallichiana-Hualien-Giant.i-2109.s-65419.r-1.jpg?v=1701121683","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/products\/pteris-wallichiana-hualien-giant-large-ferns","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
