Each plant is unique. Size, shape, fullness, and variegation will vary.

Autumn Fern, Dryopteris erythrosora, is native to East Asia and is known for its color-shifting fronds new growth emerges in copper to reddish tones before maturing to deep green. This contrast gives it strong visual interest compared to typical ferns. It grows in a full, arching clump and has a slightly more structured look than softer, feathery ferns, making it a great choice for adding texture without looking overly delicate.

Place this plant in a north or east-facing window about 1–3 feet from the glass, or a west-facing window 3–5 feet back. It prefers lower to moderate light and will scorch in direct sun. Under grow lights, use 5000K–6500K positioned 12–18 inches above the plant. If the fronds start to pale or stretch, it needs a bit more light, but if they burn or dry out, the light is too strong.

Water using a chopstick or meter and keep the soil lightly and consistently moist without letting it stay soggy. This is not a plant that wants to fully dry out. It prefers higher humidity, and crispy edges usually point to dry air or inconsistent watering. Yellowing fronds and soft crowns indicate overwatering, while drooping or dry, brittle fronds indicate it’s too dry.

I love the smaller plant sizes because I love watching them grow. The key to that is a strong root system and Mel definitely came through with a great plant with a good root system!

This is my second order from the rooted plant shop. My first order came quickly, packaged well and that plant has never given me any issues. That is why I ordered again and this experience was no different. I check her website often to see if she has any of my wishlist plants because if I can get them from her shop i know I’m getting a healthy plant and I fuss free experience.
