Polystichum neolobatum (Asian Saber Fern)
With its striking, leathery, dark green fronds and glossy finish, Polystichum neolobatum looks like it stepped straight out of a botanical action movie—sleek, bold, and ready to bring drama to the shade garden.
Reaching about 45–60cm tall and wide, it forms a neat, semi-evergreen clump that thrives in part to full shade with moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Low-maintenance and surprisingly hardy, it’s a fern that means business—polished, powerful, and perfect for gardeners who like their foliage with a bit of edge. Think of it as your garden’s secret weapon—silent, stylish, and always sharp.
