  1. flowering fern

    A flowering fern is generally a misnomer, as true ferns do not flower or produce seeds but reproduce via spores. However, the term is often used to describe certain plants that have fern-like characteristics and produce flowers, such as the Osmunda regalis, also known as the royal fern, or plants from the genus Schizaea, often referred as curly grass ferns.
