Wikipedia

  1. hard fern

    Blechnum, known as hard fern, is a genus of ferns in the family Blechnaceae, subfamily Blechnoideae, according to the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I). Two very different circumscriptions of the genus are used by different authors. In the PPG I system, based on Gasper et al. (2016), Blechnum is one of 18 genera in the subfamily Blechnoideae, and has about 30 species. Other sources use a very broadly defined Blechnum s.l., including accepting only two other genera in the subfamily. The genus then has about 250 species. In the PPG I circumscription, the genus is mostly neotropical, with a few southern African species.

  1. hard fern

    A hard fern, also known as Blechnum spicant, is a species of fern in the family Blechnaceae, native to Europe and Western Asia. The plant is evergreen, with two distinct types of fronds: the sterile fronds are spreading, more rounded in shape; and the fertile fronds are erect, slim and pointed, bearing the spores. It is called "hard fern" due to its relatively tough foliage. It prefers damp, shady environments and can often be found in woodlands.
