Adiantum pedatum Ornamental Grasses Cooper's ice plant cannot standWithout a doubt, the widespread Adiantum pedatum (Canada south to Florida) is one of our most elegant North American native ferns. The horizontal horseshoe like wreath of foliage rests atop 18 24" tall, wiry black stems. Northern maidenhair fern thrives in moist, rich soil, but also grows well in all but the driest of woodland garden sites. The light, airy, fine texture of the fronds serves as a perfect backdrop for hostas and other bold foliage
