- Ribbon-like fronds form a low mound before rising upward for a strong vertical accent.
- Compact evergreen fern reaching 24–30 inches tall and about 18 inches wide.
- Thrives in filtered sun to full shade with consistently moist, well-drained soil.
- Outstanding for containers, shaded terraces, woodland beds, and indoor bright-but-not-sunny areas.
The Jurassic Velociraptor Ribbon Fern (Pteris cretica) stands out with its elegant, ribbon-like fronds that start from a low base and shoot upward to create a dramatic, grass-like silhouette in shaded spaces. Discovered at higher elevations in China’s Hubei Province, this selection is notably hardier than typical ribbon ferns, offering evergreen structure and vivid texture throughout the year. Ideal for woodland gardens, containers, or bright indoor settings, it thrives in high humidity and evenly moist, organically rich soil. Its upright, architectural form brings a lively sense of movement and vertical energy to any shaded planting design.
