great sun-tolerance

This stunning

there really is little to do in terms of maintenance

including extreme drought once established

but the best feature here is the tropical looking foliage

Arachniodes davalliaeformis Shrubs and Conifers great sun-tolerance(aka: Arachniodes pseudoaristata) Arachniodes davalliaeformis is a little known evergreen fern that hails from the southern part of the Japanese islands where it forms a clump of upright 2' long stipes ending in stiff triangular fronds. The dark green foliage on our 15 year old clump feels like it is made from shredded hard plastic a far cry from what we typically think of as a fern. I'd like to see a slug try and take a bite out of this one!
