Blechnum consists primarily of evergreen ferns characterized by upright or spreading rhizomes. The fronds are typically simple and pinnate, with fertile fronds standing upright while the sterile ones tend to spread out.

Blechnum niponicum forms a nearly horizontal rosette of evergreen fronds that are leathery and robust, displaying a deep green hue. As new fronds emerge, they exhibit subtle tones of pink, red, and orange, particularly at the edges and tips. In summer and autumn, upright spikes that produce fertile spores rise from the center of the plant, contrasting with the surrounding foliage.

Blechnum norfolkianum

Blechnum novae-zelandiae is a perennial fern characterized by its short, creeping rhizomes. It produces large, bright green, wavy leaflets on drooping sterile fronds. The new growth can exhibit hues ranging from orange to deep red. In contrast, the upright fertile fronds display narrower leaflets that curl and darken to black as the spores mature.

Doodia 'Sonter's Linearis'

Doodia aspera

Doodia aspera 'Rough Ruby' is a compact evergreen fern that reaches approximately 60 cm in height and width. Its fronds stand erect or arch gracefully and are segmented with toothed, textured edges. In spring, new growth appears in a reddish-pink hue, transitioning to a deep green as the season progresses.
