Schizaea bifida (Schizaeaceae) |
|
| Schizaea
bifida is a reasonably common native fern that grows on peaty
and sandy soils at low altitudes in the north and east. It is a
small slender plant that can easily be overlooked. Like the other
species of Schizaea, it has the very distinctive comb-like
fertile fronds. The fertile fronds are often branched. |
