Woodwardia orientalis

Oriental Chain Fern

A large fern with a wide arching habit, up to 6' wide and 4' tall. Likes a shady spot with rich moist soil. The leaves are shiny in a medium green color. Slow to mature, at which points small plantlets form at the leaf edges, making it easy to propagate. Does well in CA to add a tropical look. Can take some sun with regular water.
