I purchased an inexpensive small potted fern in southern Florida where I live, and the species Identification was not on it.

I want to know it’s identification for growing requirements. I have a terrace full of subtropical/tropical bog plants.

The fern looks very similar to some of the ferns on your blog entry, most notably A. hookerianum, A. gracillimum and A. lucrosum.

I’m not sure how to attach photos to this comment, but, I am wondering if anyone more familiar with this genus could help me to positively identify the species, which is apparently not effected by being constantly moist (i.e. sitting for months in an under pan filled with water.)

Thanks,

Michael
