HARDY FERNS 
Hardy ferns are very useful for massed plantings, 
particularly in shady locations. Many varieties can be 
used for edging shady walks, and some of the smaller 
types will suitably fill in little nooks in the rock 
garden. Information on varieties listed and regarding 
other varieties obtainable will be gladly given.
