Bracken is highest in potash if you pull in the spring. What you do if you want to eradicate them. I imagine that fresh young ferns would be the same.
Royal ferns used to be the compost of choice for orchids. Hence they have almost become almost extinct in the UK.
In my shady garden I have mostly the commom male fern growing at the front of shrub borders. An idea I got from a Chelsea show garden. This year they have over-luxuriated, so I am planning in the winter to dig up, divide and space them out. My woodland bit could do with a lot more.
