Mother Fern (Asplenuim
bulbiferum) – Widespread and variable group of rhizomatous ferns, once
called spleenwort for alleged medicinal value. These evergreen species resemble
one another only in botanical details and in their need for shade and liberal
watering. Unlike many other ferns, they need a rest period from late fall to
early spring when grown indoors; during that time, reduce watering and withhold
fertilizer.
Graceful
with very finely cut light green fronds growing to 4’ tall and grows about 4’wide.
