Field Notes

Description:

Astonishing turquoise blue fern, whose shiny fronds look like they've been painted with Hammerite! When they're wet, the effect is even more beautiful. Cultivated specimens. Naturally grows as an epiphyte or lithophyte on limestone. Would really love to see this in the wild
