Painted Brake Fern | Pteris Quadriaurita 'Tricolor' | 12cm Pot | By Plant Theory
Ferns are some of the oldest varieties of plants still in existence today and they grow all over the world in differing shapes and sizes. This Pteris Quadricolor, otherwise known as the Painted Brake Fern is a semi-evergreen variety that can be planted outside as well as potted up as a houseplant. These plants are great for filling in space between other plants, be that in a bed or a potted display, though they can happily stand alone as beautiful plants in their own pot.
