Welcome to our new site
Athyrium filix-femina var. angustum ‘Lady in Red’ is a striking and elegant fern prized for its vivid ruby to garnet-red stems that beautifully contrast with its soft, lacy light green fronds. Forming an upright, slowly spreading clump, this graceful variety adds texture and subtle colour to shaded garden spaces, with its distinctive red stems becoming more pronounced as the plant matures. Fast-growing and easy to maintain, it is perfect for filling gaps beneath trees, softening shrub borders, or creating layered woodland plantings. Ideal for naturalistic designs, ‘Lady in Red’ pairs wonderfully with early spring bulbs like snowdrops, extending seasonal interest and bringing refined beauty to shaded landscapes.

🌱 Perennial Care Guide (Gatineau/Ottawa)
All perennials at Nesbitt’s are suitable for hardiness zones 1 through 5. This means they are selected to withstand a wide range of colder climates and seasonal temperature variations in our region.
Perennials are expected to return year after year when planted in the right conditions. To support strong root development and long-term performance, use well-draining soil and enrich with compost or peat moss. Choosing the right plant for your garden’s light and soil will help ensure reliable growth and consistent blooms each season.
