Rasp Fern - Doodia Aspera

Doodia Aspera is commonly known as the Rasp Fern.
Native to Australia and New Zealand this was the first Australian Fern to be brought back to Kew Gardens.
It is a half hardy fern with a low growing habit and is good for ground cover especially in shaded areas but it does require a very sheltered well drained position if it is left outside all year round.
The Rasp Fern is a most unusual fern with stunning, red stemmed fronds as new growth which become a deep green colour as the leaves age. The Rasp Fern's fronds are rough to the touch.
