Plant Features

Hay Scented Athyrium Plant is also sometimes called the Boulder Fern. It develops in patches, rather than in clumps and in some areas where it grows wild, it appears to be a beautifully shaggy carpet. The fronds grow erect, arching as they lengthen and are a yellowy-green color. This variety gets its name because when crushed, or walked upon, the scent is that of freshly mown hay.Fern Growing Tips
