Transform shady corners of your garden with this collection of six Soft Shield Fern (Polystichum setiferum) plants. Renowned for their graceful, finely divided fronds that arch elegantly from a central crown, these ferns bring lush, year-round greenery to areas where many other plants struggle. Each plant is supplied as a well-established 1 litre root-ball, ready to plant out and settle in quickly.


Polystichum setiferum is one of the most reliable and attractive native British ferns, widely celebrated for its soft-textured, shuttlecock-like habit. The mid-green fronds are beautifully detailed with delicate pinnae, creating a layered, feathery appearance that adds texture and depth to borders, woodland plantings and containers. As a fully hardy evergreen, it retains its foliage throughout winter, providing structure and interest even in the coldest months.


These ferns are exceptionally low-maintenance once established. They thrive in moist, humus-rich soil and are perfectly suited to shaded and partially shaded positions beneath trees, along north-facing walls or tucked into sheltered borders. They combine beautifully with hostas, heucheras, hellebores and other shade-loving perennials.

Kept our dog busy!
Color: Navy Blue, Color: Navy Blue
We have a 4 month old corgi and he is obsessed with this toy. The puzzle pieces move really easily so they are able to get into it but also create enough of a puzzle for them to move around.

Challenging for my experienced puzzle players, sturdy all in one.
Color: Navy Blue
My girls love this treat puzzle; it is not for a first timer. My dogs have several of these and they cannot get the hand of spinning the light blue circle to move the small red covers. It is a challenge and that is what they need to give me some me time.

Keeps my dog busy for a bit
Color: Navy Blue
I don't fill the hard to open spots yet, he's just figuring it out. It does keep his attention. It's a little small for a big dog (100lb Lab), prob better for a small dog. He has a hard time with the little trays. Definitely worth trying out. I wanted an inexpensive puzzle toy to try first, in case he didn't like it or couldn't figure it out.
