Cretan brake fern - Pteris cretica 🏡 DIY Designs

THAT DRY SHADE PLANT YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ....

I've grown A LOT of plants in my time and you'd be hard pushed to find one that's as tough and as beautiful as 'Cretan brake fern', botanical name Pteris cretica (pronounced 'teris' as that's a silent 'P').

Perfect for those dry shady areas where nothing except clivia will grow. In fact  its a great companion plant 🪴 to clivia.

It'll grow in sunny spots, but then so will lots of plants, so save it to fill those difficult areas like the narrow, shady south side strip, under the eaves and below raised decks.
