My lovely Shield Fern (Dryopteris erythrosora (Japanese Shield Fern))

This year my Shield fern is looking healthier than ever, it's the one thing that is enjoying this cool and damp weather....

Thanks Dawn, it's quite strong really and has grown so much, I think I might have to move the dark Hebe near it!

Its lovely, I have a couple near the pond - the ones that like damp conditions - an Ostrich one and can't remember the other one off hand, lol. Nice big ones though.
