This year I purchased several ferns to put in a woodland garden. However they all seem to be dead or dying. I thought ferns were hard to kill. Above is a fern that the previous owner planted. I am keeping an eye on it to harvest the spores and try propagating it. Has anyone else has success doing this? Maybe it is too ambitious since I could not even keep transplants alive.

How do you keep an eye on the ferns when you're busy keeping the chickens out of trouble?
