Lord. If y were best me I could give you tons. I’m here digging out my ostrich ferns and moving them around so that I can put in 26 hydrangeas. These things take over fast! I have one side with the ferns, hostas and black elephant ears. My back went out 3yr ago and I just recently had surgery about 6wk back. I’m a new lady! So out I go back into my yard where I’d eat breath and sleep 24/7 if I’m able. I’m fighting these things off left and right. They like to live along the surface of the soil and take half shade or half full sun once established. Tbh my side that get more sun they do better than on the side where there’s less sun. They like water but do well in my Alabama droughts too. I’m 49 and my ferns came from my mommas house. I dug them all up as a newly married, broke gardener along with some orange ditch dailies. Trying to figure out right now how or if I want to incorporate some of these behind my hydrangeas but they get so thick and spread so fast I think I’ll be fighting them off. (They get about waist high too so they will be around the height I want to keep the hydrangeas) Sigh. Off to search “ostrich fern” again for ideas. Good luck! Check Lowe’s or Home Depot. I see these in quart pots there sometimes.
Well hell...... Oh well. Got them on clearance for $2 lol the Christmas fern was the same price but it would have been nice to know before spending $10
Great!! I just came back from Walmart with two bags of these, nonetheless I’m going to plant them anyway! I need green in my front beds!!

No, they sell on Amazon too. Had the same experience with what came up, which was 1 out of 3. Jerks
