|
|
| I just recently transplanted some wood ferns that I brought overnight from East TX. The fronds have died back to the ground, but I heard they are very drought resistant. If I water them daily and keep them moist, should I expect them to send out new shoots this summer? Thanks. |

| you should not have to water them daily. They do not need to stay so wet. Give them time to dry just a bit before watering or they may rot. I'm assuming they are in part or full shade? |

| Thanks for the help. Yes, they are in pretty much full shade. |
