Hi, Tia. Some ferns are evergreen and others deciduous...I have
Arachnoides simplicior, a Z7 fern, planted close to the house and it stays
green year-round, even under the snow. My hart's-tongue fern is also
evergreen.

Hello, Gail. They are also in violation of Federal law if they do not
issue a refund within 6 weeks (I might be off on the time allowed) after
you ask for it, if the reason for the refund request is that they are not
able to supply the item ordered. And if they charged your CC without
shipping the item, then won't remove the charge, they have broken another
law or two. BTW, you have some great prices and an interesting choice of
plants. TY for your catalogue; I will be sending my order later.
