CloseWhile most houseplants are some shade of green, there are enough variations in texture and yes, color, to make indoor gardening an intriguing venture. The Bear's Paw Fern has long, finger-like, blue-green fronds that may actually clash when planted with true green plants but harmonize well with reddish or silvery green specimens. If creating an indoor planter, consider pairing this upright fern with cyclamen or perhaps a Ruby Rubber plant for dramatic contrast. Planted on its own, 'Blue Star' will create an eye-catching, upright mound of unusual foliage.
