From Premium Plants.net 'Branford Beauty' was developed by crossing Japanese painted fern and lady fern. The resulting plant is a beautiful selection with the leaf color of Japanese painted fern combined with the more upright habit of the lady fern.
When I decided to renew the shade bed last spring I knew that I wanted to include a fern. I was intrigued by the coloring of 'Branford Beauty' and thought it would be a nice way to tie the foliage and flower colors together.
