Re: Concerning Polypodium decumanum

Reggie,
  Thanks very much. On steroids is right. Mine is in a hanging basket. The fronds hang down at least three feet.

  If you go to this site, the plant labeled Polypodium decumanum is actually 
Microsorum scolopendria (aka Polypodium scolopendrium or Phymatosorus 
scolopendria). Several of these images are labeled incorrectly.

Polypodium decumanum or Phlebodium decumanum is a rather large fern, and 
rhizome is large and densely covered with hairs and scales. P. decumanum 
resembles Polypodium aureum on steriods.

Please try this site: _http://www.plantsystematics.org/_ 
(http://www.plantsystematics.org/) The fern section was compiled by Dr. Robbin Moran. It 
specializes in ferns of the tropics, the Americas.
