That sword isn't THAT neon green in real life, but is a very healthy new green. The fiddleheads have just leafed out :)
Your ferns are beautiful! What maidenhair is that first photo cos its huge and I love it
Thank you! I believe it's a Western maidenhair (Adiantum aleuticum). They are hardy enough to survive snow.
They grow quite well in this climate, even in pots. After a year or two of getting established, they create massive root systems and then become gigantic like this one :)
