- W2321867602 abstract "A wall is a straight harsh line, which we all try to soften in order to have an attractive setting. Ferns are good for overcoming these straight lines. One I like to use is Microlepia platyphylla, a common fern in cultivation which seems to lack a common name. Here in southern California it will grow to seven or eight feet tall and is therefore an ideal background fern for landscaping along a wall that faces east or north. Good specimens with graceful arching fronds develop only with some sun. I have tried it in a shady corner, but the stipes become soft and do not have the sturdiness to hold up the large heavy fronds. Microlepia strigosa is another popular fern that can be used along a wall to create a soft, graceful effect. I have grown this one successfully where it receives the early morning sun or the late afternoon sun, and also where it receives filtered sunlight, or even in a location where it received no sun at all but had good light. It has been satisfactory in all these locations. In the sun the fronds are yellow-green and have a thick texture, whereas the ones in the shade with good light are greener and thinner. The Leatherleaf Fern, Rumohra adiantiformis (sometimes erroneously called Polystichum capense or Aspidium capense), also called Iron Fern, is popular with flower arrangers, because the fronds will last as long as three weeks after being cut. To have good texture and fronds that will stand up, the ferns must have a good deal of sun. Inland where I live is not considered a good location for ferns, for we are far enough away from the ocean to have dry heat in the summer and frost in the winter. However, Rumohra will grow well with me if given care. It desires morning sun until about eleven o'clock or the afternoon sun from three thirty p.m. on. Along the coast, where there is better humidity, it will taken even more sun. This fern is often called a buffer plant; when planted at the windy end of a wall it will break the wind and protect other ferns planted along the wall. 2637 NORTH LEE AVENUE, EL MONTE, CALIFORNIA. 174" @default.
