Truly regal in form, the attention-getting fronds of this beautiful fern grow to a height of six feet once established.
Royal fern is equally happy in shade or sun, as long as it’s kept moist.
Adding to its exotic look, separate “fertile” fronds laden with reddish-brown spores are produced in midsummer.
Heads Up!
The Virginia Living Museum staff will begin setting up for an after hours event around 3PM on the main floor.
This should not interfere with your experience and we will not be closing early.
Heads Up! The Changing Exhibit Gallery, where our Wild Explorations exhibit lives, will close at 3PM today in preparation for an after hours event!
