Re: ferns DIGEST V1 #166

Yes, young Dryopteris I think. Check for shaggy brown scales at the base of the stipe.

How long have you had the bonsai pot? As in, did this grow from a spore that was in the soil when you bought it, or from one that blew in while you owned it?  If the former, what was the country of origin of the bonsai?
