The Autumn Fern, often called a tricolor fern, is a, semi-evergreen perennial featuring dynamic, color-changing fronds. New growth emerges coppery-pink or red in spring, matures to chartreuse, and finally deep green, with rusty-red spores appearing in autumn. "Tricolor" Effect: New coppery fronds often appear in summer and fall, contrasting with the existing green foliage, creating a multi-colored effect. It is a versatile, shade-loving, and drought-tolerant.
