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 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.
