Matteuccia struthiopteris

Plant in consistently moist, humus-rich soil in full to partial shade, setting crowns at or just below soil level with sterile fronds pointing outward. The vase-shaped plant spreads by underground stolons to form large colonies over time; divide every 3–4 years to manage spread and rejuvenate growth. Harvest tightly coiled fiddleheads in early spring when they emerge no more than 2–3 inches from the ground and are still tightly coiled; blanch before eating. Avoid dry or compacted soils, as this fern is adapted to stream banks and flood plains. Спосіб посадки: Розмноження діленням куща Відстань між рослинами: 24–36 дюймів Висота: 36–60 дюймів
