Comments (7)I planted about 12 ostrich ferns I bought on EBay last fall. I have a big woodland area and I planted them in different areas of my property. They all grew and are about 3 feet tall and beautiful!! My question is because I planted them in different areas will they multiply as fast as if I planted them together? How fast do they multiply? Should I do anything to help them along. I am so excited about the beauty they add to the landscape....See MoreNeed help with planting bareroot ferns

Comments (9)Let me just add that I've been buying Hostas from Costco for the last few years and last year almost all the varieties I bought were HVX infected. I had no trouble getting a refund. When I saw the displays go up again this year I dug through the assortment to see what I didn't have yet and would make a good addition the my modest but growing collection. So, right now I have 4 'Eskimo Pie' potted up in #1's and 3 of the 4 have started unfurling, so I should have an inkling in about another month or so whether these are possibly infected or not. I'll have to wait another year at least though before I feel a little more comfortable giving them a clean bill of health....See More
