    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    An airy bit of insouciant delicate nonsense in appearance but one whose quiet pulse plumping those finely cut pinnae throbs with a chlorophyllitic primality that makes this an enduring and amenable garden fern. A Midwest & Eastern native, deciduous, increasing by frond bulblets.
