Re: (Ferns) Polypodium difforme, looks like Asplenium


Brian,
Thank you for being so kind and posting the photo -- very considerate of  
you.  I am also casting my vote for Asplenium.  I used to have a nice  
collection of them.  I suppose they now live in fern heaven, in the  Asplenium 
section.

I'm  inclined to agree.  Definitely Asplenium-like, but not exactly A.  
obtusatum, at least not like the ones I've seen in the  wild.
