The best new fern in years. This hybrid has the best qualitys you want in a fern.Easy to grow,fast growing,and-it looks like a fern!(some exotics..) Give plenty of light . Broken shade is best. NEVER let go dry. It is a fern who's parents native habitat is stream banks of shady canyons. I think this is the best fern you can buy. In groups it would be an outstanding display. Maori Princess is much more resistant to slugs and snails then the Mother fern and can take more cold also. One outstanding feature of this fern is its ability to keep that "fresh" tropical look of glossy foliage all year.
