It reaches approximatley 90cm x 90cm, it is a semi-evergreen fern, keeping its foliage for most of the year and if its particularly mild it will remain evergreen. Its young foliage is a lovely fresh golden green and and matures into a lush dark green with distinctive curly tufts on the ends of the leaves.
