Re: Re: ferns DIGEST V1 #166

Thanks Wim, I'm going to google for those 2 species to compare. My plant is
in its second year but
it is recovering from a winter outside in heavy clay. But good news, I
noticed new croziers appearing today,
2 of the ones that were already there coming out of the brown papery sheaths
and 2 small ones coming from under the
compost!
I need some explanation of the stipe scales, what are these exactly?

Many thanks
Larry
