Royal Fern

Royal Fern (Osmunda regalis) Royal Fern (Osmunda regalis) is a majestic, deciduous fern known for its large, upright fronds that resemble those of a tropical plant. Thriving in moist environments, this native fern is ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and wetland restoration projects. Distinctive Features Royal Fern produces elegant, bipinnate fronds that create a soft, feathery texture. Unlike many ferns, its sterile and fertile fronds are similar in appearance, with the fertile fronds producing clusters of spore-bearing structures at their tips, turning a rusty brown in summer.
