Adiantum pedatum 'Imbricatum' - 2026

Adiantum pedatum ‘Imbricatum’ is a refined and compact maidenhair fern, prized for its delicate, fan-shaped fronds that overlap in elegant layers of fresh green foliage. The finely cut leaves are carried on slender, dark stems, giving the plant a light and airy presence perfect for softening shaded garden spaces. Its foliage often emerges with a hint of pink before maturing to green, adding subtle seasonal interest.

This hardy perennial thrives in moist, humus-rich soils in partial to full shade, making it an excellent choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and damp rockeries. Naturally forming a graceful mound, it is both versatile and low-maintenance, bringing texture and softness to darker corners of the garden. With its delicate appearance yet reliable hardiness, ‘Imbricatum’ is an ideal fern for adding elegance and structure to shaded planting schemes.
