Care & Size Guidance
Blechnum montanum thrives best planted at a site with very moist and rich soil, situated in part shade.
Whilst it dislikes drought and humidity, once it has been established it is more tolerant than you might expect.
That said, it is only borderline hardy for the winter weather in the UK, so it’s best placed in a sheltered spot and may need to be provided protection during colder frosts.
