15 years ago

this spring i bought an autumn Fern. It is planted on the south side of my house and gets full sun. Will it live i have had it really wet this summer and up to now it has lost quite a few fronds. i dont know what to do, will it survive. I dont want to move it because i have a bunch of various spring bulbs planted around it and i dont want to disturb them. What should i do? any help or suggestions will be apreciated.

Autumn Fern is pretty tough and can look a bit tattered by the end of the season. Most ferns tend to do better with afternoon shade. Why not move it to a shady location?
