Cultivated Ferns
"...the gardener must put some kind of twist on the existing landscape, turn its prose into something nearer poetry.” Michael Pollan
PLEASE NOTE: All of the fern species that are under cultivation at Distant Hill Gardens are Native to the property. Some specimens have planted themselves naturally in the gardens and some have been transplanted from the wild. Those fern that have been taken from our woods are very common and are not threatened or endangered species.
