Osmunda spectabilis Fragrant Flowers 200' elevationAmerican Royal fern, Osmunda spectabilis, is truly one of the most distinctive and spectacular, bold textured, deciduous native ferns. The light green, leathery leaves give a very tropical appearance. With adequate moisture, royal fern can reach 6' tall x 3' wide, but 3' tall is more typical.
