Onocleaceae
An impressive variety of the ostrich feather fern , with even taller, more spreading fronds. It forms large, flared clumps of a luminous light green, perfect for structuring cool shade or streamside scenes. Hardy, vigorous and spectacular, it transforms every corner of undergrowth into a living tableau. The young fiddleheads of this fern are edible in spring after cooking, provided they are well identified, harvested young and in moderation. A true wild vegetable in the garden!
