{"product_id":"ghost-fern","title":"Ghost Fern (1 gallon)","description":"\u003cp\u003eChoose Ghost Fern when you want a shade bed to glow. Its luminous silvery-white fronds on dark burgundy stems light up dark corners where plain green ferns disappear, and it does it standing up — an upright, clumping habit that reads as tidy, not floppy. It is easy, deer-resistant, and asks only for steady moisture and a break from hot sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003caside class=\"pgne-recommendation\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePGNE Recommendation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShade and woodland beds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrightening dark corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairing with hosta and heuchera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsistently moist soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNot recommended for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot, dry full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnwatered, drought-prone sites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindy, exposed spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormal, clipped looks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/aside\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuy This If\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want silver color in shade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou can keep the soil moist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou like an upright fern.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSkip This If\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe site bakes in afternoon sun.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou cannot water in dry spells.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou need an evergreen fern.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePGNE Report Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCategory\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrade\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWhy\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLandscape Impact\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe silver fronds glow in shade and pull the eye straight to spots green ferns leave flat.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrowth Rate\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eB\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIt fills its clump at a steady, useful pace rather than racing to cover ground.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaintenance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA-\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeep it moist and cut back spent fronds after winter; otherwise it looks after itself.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDeer Resistance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA-\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeer rarely browse ferns, so it holds up well where deer pressure is heavy.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSmall Space Fit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA-\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe upright clumping habit tucks neatly into borders, entries, and tight shade beds.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eScreening Value\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThis is an accent that lights up a bed, not a screen or a privacy planting.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt PGNE, we reach for Ghost Fern to light up shady beds where green ferns fall flat.
