Home: Catalog: Mulberry Miniatures: Faerie Fern, Platt's Black

Faerie Fern, Platt's Black Botanical Name: Letinella (Cotula) x 'Platt's Black' Life Cycle: Mulberry Miniatures Description/Size: Inch long, medium sized leaves are more dainty and finely textured than previous selections. Throw in some sunshine, they are jet black! In a little more shade they grow bicolored green with black tips. Grow over crushed white stone for best effect. Petite yellow buttons form in spring! We received an email that this plant's proper name is 'Platt's Black' after Kaila Platt, not 'Pratt's Black'. Once again we humbly apologize and shake our heads at the nursery industry for spreading bad names like rumors. Cold Tolerance: Zone 6a 9b 3a 3b 4a 4b 5a 5b 6a 6b 7a 7b 8a 9a 9b-11 Light: P.Sun-P.Shade to Shade Height: 1 1/2in. groundcover Water: Wet-Normal Soil: Organic-Loamy Flowers: Early Summer to Middle Spring Recommended for: Beauty.
