There are about 10,000 species of ferns and many having common names that vary with numerous differences. 'Peacock' is not known generally but all ferns are foliage plants and always need shady moist positions. Ferns are neuter plants and serve well as foils for flowering plants. If you need to move your Irises [Irides?] then do so with as little disturbance as possible and all should be well. Best Wishes. "Kipper" wrote in message ... Any info on Peacock Fern. I got one at the lawn and garden show in Nashville and would like to know some info on them, also any advice on moving Japanese iris. thank you. There is a plant known as Peacock fern. It is neither a fern nor a peacock. Also known as Selaginella uncinata, it is a spike moss. Not sure if this is the plant you have. As has been pointed out, common names lead to much confusion. Google the Latin name to find a picture. I've grown this plant as a ground cover (damp, shady, sandy) and as a potted plant. hth, elizabeth |
