Ferns are great plants for a shady garden, moist garden. They spread quickly though so make sure you plant them somewhere where you do not mind them spreading(Japanese ferns do not spread as quickly). I planted them in my backyard where it is shady and floods often because they soak up some of the flood water well.

Fern serves as an ecological filter to shape density, species composition, size structure, and spatial distribution of seedlings. Useful in removing heavy metals(especially arsenic) from the soil. Has a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into compounds useful for rice plants. Provide habitat for other species. Stabilize soil.

Ferns are also ecological indicators that tell us about the environment they're in.
