New York Fern

New York Fern Thelypteris noveboracensis

There are many, many different types of ferns.

Ferns make the riverbanks along lakes, streams, and ponds look beautiful and give them their gorgeous beauty.

Ferns make a great addition to any stream, pond, lake, or creek because they give it beauty with their full green foliage and even aid in soil erosion. The fern roots clump together, preventing soil erosion and decaying, such as rubber bands.

Ferns are a great site to see, but it is always advised to leave them where they are and purchase them from a wholesaler or online plant nursery. There are two different types of ferns, wet ones or ferns that grow along the creek beds and river banks and dry ones. Dry ferns love areas such as rock beds or areas they can grow because they are well drained.

Many people love to plant ferns along their natural areas or around their water gardens because they are deer-proof. Ferns are one plant that deer don’t eat, so ferns are a great plant to have around that you know the deer won’t touch.

The New York Fern can grow to approximately 1-2 feet tall. These types of ferns grow well in wet areas and moist soil. The New York Fern is very delicate and fragile and has the smallest leaves at the bottom towards the ground, then larger ones, and then gets smaller towards the top again.

The New York Fern is a great plant to have around a water garden because it doesn’t only add color but also gives you a natural look all at the same time.
