Walking Fern
Asplenium rhizophyllum
35.3244, -84.1774
Field Notes
Description:
So named because when the leaf tip of the parent plant makes contact with the soil it forms a plantlet, creating a walking effect. Although, as the third photo shows, they may form without soil contact, as I found a few of them dangling in the air.
Habitat:
Appalachian mountains
