Asplenium bulbiferum (Hen And Chicken Fern)
Asplenium bulbiferum, commonly known as the Hen and Chicken Fern or Pikopiko Fern, is a popular NZ native prized for its lush, arching fronds and ability to produce baby ferns (plantlets) along the leaf edges. Ideal for shaded gardens, underplanting, or pots, it thrives in moist, well-drained soil with protection from direct sun and wind. This fern adds a soft, tropical feel to any space and is low-maintenance, making it a favourite for both indoor and outdoor use.
Ligularia 'Britt-Marie Crawford' (Black Leaved Ligularia)
Ligularia 'Britt Marie Crawford' is a dramatic perennial prized for its large dark chocolate bronze foliage that forms bold clumps in garden settings. In summer and early autumn tall stems carry vivid orange daisy like blooms that stand out brilliantly against the deep toned leaves. This plant thrives in moisture retentive soil and brings a lush tropical look to shaded areas of New Zealand gardens where strong foliage contrast is desired.
