Autumn Fern (Dryopteris erythrosora) is a beautiful and versatile fern
that is prized for its colorful foliage.
It is a clump-forming, semi-evergreen fern with broadly triangular, arching fronds. In spring, its new fronds emerge a coppery red color, which gradually fades to a deep green as the fronds mature. In the fall, the fronds often take on a reddish tint again, providing a touch of autumnal color to the garden.
