Polystichum neolobatum
Asian Saber Fern
USDA Zone: 6-9
Plant number: 9.050.160
The Asian saber fern is reliable and beautiful. It produces glossy green and leathery fronds with spiky tips. Very upright in habit which provides an open vase-shaped plant. Although evergreen, it is best to cut the fronds back in late February or March, before the new fronds emerge. Holds up well after cutting so is often used in floral displays.
