Blechnum spicant (Deer Fern) is an evergreen fern native to Europe, North America, and parts of Asia. It is well-known for its distinctive two types of fronds:

Sterile fronds: low-growing, spreading horizontally, forming a lush green rosette at the base.

Fertile fronds: taller, erect, and narrower, rising above the sterile fronds with a more delicate appearance.

This fern thrives in shaded, moist, and acidic soils, often found in forests, woodlands, and stream banks. It is valued as an ornamental plant for shady gardens, where it provides texture and year-round greenery. Deer Fern is hardy, low-maintenance, and can tolerate cool climates, making it a popular choice for naturalistic and woodland landscape designs.
