CHOICE HARDY FERNS. 



Suitable positions for Hardy Ferns are to be found in almost every garden. With few exceptions they do best in a shady 

 •or semi-shady position in rich but well-drained soil, where they can be liberally supplied with water during dry weather. 

 Where the soil is stiff or clayey, incorporate a liberal quantity of leaf-mould, peat or other loose material to make it friable. 



Varieties marked * require a shady position. Those marked f succeed in the sun or half-shade. We live after each 

 variety the average height of growth in inches.
