Sensitive Fern
The Sensitive Fern, Onoclea sensibilis, is a large, somewhat coarse deciduous fern which occurs in wet woods and thickets and in moist soils along streams and springs.
Sensitive Ferns can grow up to 4' tall.
It is best not to remove dead fronds until spring, because they provide protection for the crowns over the winter.
It features long-stalked, deeply pinnatifid, bright green, vegetative (sterile) fronds (2-4' long) with leathery, triangular leaflets (pinnae) which have distinctively netted veins.

Morning glory likes hot summer weather. This fast growing, large leaf plant makes an ideal screening plant. If you start seeds off indoors, do not put them out until the weather has warmed up.
