Ghost Fern If you have a shaded area that is begging to become a quiet, graceful beauty then these ferns will do the trick. Soft fronds with well defined texture and color will dress up any shady garden spot. Plant these delightful ferns together for an elegant background or for graceful groundcover. You can even use them as a splash of greenery in cut-flower arrangements. And despite their delicate appearance, all three are rugged perennials that won�t let you down. Finely divided pale-green fronds with maroon ribs create an interesting contrast to standard ferns. Makes a great addition to a woodland garden, rock garden, or naturalized area.
