- American Fern Society Spore Exchange
The arrangement of sporangia varies greatly in ferns. Most ferns that we would see as we walk through the forest would have their sporangia on the underside of the frond, arranged in an organized pattern usually associated with veins in the pinnule (leaf). Many times (but not always) the ferns provide a protective covering for the Sorus called an Indusium. They are miniature sacks or capsules that…

MISCELLANEOUS FERN NOTES Japanese Climbing Fern, Lygodium japonicum, an introduced, weedy fern in the US Deep South Don’t expect all ferns to fit your stereotype of what a fern should be.

Humidity may be too low in the home for fine, thin-leaved ferns such as maidenhair, which frequently develops scorched leaf margins in dry atmospheres. Boston and rabbit’s foot ferns as well as other types with thick fronds tolerate low humidity better than those with thin fronds. Good fern growth occurs at normal home temperatures of 70 to 80 F but most ferns outdoors will be injured by freezing temperatures….

Ferns of the Coastal Plain. Inexperienced gardeners repot ferns just as the pots seem to be three-fourths full. Start small ferns in small pots. To maintain the proper balance of root systems and space, some ferns, depending on growth rate, need repotting several times a year. Some gardeners water by soaking ferns in clay pots in a sink or tub of water for a few minutes. Most ferns develop shallow…

Perhaps size is also a factor: ferns are big enough to catch our divided attention while we hike along a trail.
