There are over 700 species of evergreen or semi-evergreen terrestrial and epiphytic ferns, in this genus. \u00a0They are found in a wide range of habitats. \u00a0They produce short erect, or creeping rhizomes that bear tufts of fronds, which may be feathery or bipinnate but could be unevenly divided. \u00a0Some forms \u201cbird\u2019s nest\u201d in which the fronds are smooth, un-lobed, un-toothed that overlap to form a nest, in which organic matter collects. \u00a0\u00a0Sori are linear and usually run parallel along the midribs towards the edge of the fronds. \u00a0They\u2019re great for many situations in wall crevices, rock gardens, shady border, woodland garden even as a houseplant.<\/p>\n

When grown outdoors grow in humus rich, moist but well-drained soil with additional grit in partial shade. \u00a0Divide in early spring.<\/p>\n

Prone to scale insects, mealy bugs,<\/i><\/em>\u00a0deformation due to over fertilization, and bacterial leaf disease<\/i><\/em>, and foliar nematodes<\/i><\/em>\u00a0can occur.<\/p>\n

Asplenium rhizophyllum \u2013 Camptosorus rhizophyllus \u2013 Walking Fern<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 This semi-evergreen or deciduous terrestrial fern from North America can grow to 9\u201d tall and can spread indefinitely. \u00a0It produces tapered triangular to lance shaped or linear simple fronds, that\u2019s shaped and sometimes pinnatifid at the bases, with short, reddish green stalks. \u00a0The frond tips curve over and will root where they touch the ground quickly forming large colonies. \u00a0Prefers alkaline soil.<\/p>\n
