Dryopteris ‘The King’ is a majestic, hardy fern that brings bold structure and lush greenery to shaded areas of the garden. Its large, arching fronds form an impressive shuttlecock shape, creating a dramatic focal point in woodland-style borders, damp corners or shady beds. This deciduous fern is easy to grow, thrives in moist soil and provides reliable seasonal interest, with fresh fronds unfurling each spring to replace the previous year’s growth. Perfect for pairing with hostas, heucheras and other shade-loving plants, Dryopteris ‘The King’ is a must-have for adding texture and elegance to low-light spots.
