Most interesting, Dave, and reminded me that there's another that
forms (or is supposed to - mine never has) bulbils or
plantlets....Polystichum setiferum divisilobum....that you can remove
and plant to propagate it. I keep looking, but have never seen
anything I could identify as such. Probably more do this - there
are such a lot of ferns.
