Description

Dryopteris cristata, also known as the crested wood fern, is a semi-evergreen fern that is native to North America, Europe, Russia, and northern Asia. It is a hardy plant that can tolerate a wide range of conditions, but it prefers moist, shady areas. The fronds are twice pinnate, with each leaflet being divided into several smaller leaflets. The fertile fronds are erect and have widely spaced leaflets. They produce brown, kidney-shaped spores that line the undersides of the leaves in irregular rows.
