Wikipedia

  1. marginal wood fern

    Dryopteris marginalis, vernacularly known as the marginal shield fern or marginal wood fern, is a perennial species of fern found in damp shady areas throughout eastern North America, from Texas to Minnesota and Newfoundland. It favors moderately acid to circumneutral soils in cooler areas but is fairly drought-resistant once established. In the warmer parts of its range, it is most likely to be found on north-facing non-calcareous rock faces. It is common in many altitudes throughout its range, from high ledges to rocky slopes and stream banks. Marginal wood fern's name derives from the fact that the sori are located on the margins, or edges of the leaflets.

  1. marginal wood fern

    Marginal wood fern is a type of fern in the Dryopteridaceae family, scientifically known as Dryopteris marginalis. It is native to eastern North America and is commonly found in forests, rocky slopes, and bluffs. The name "marginal" comes from sori (clusters of sporangia, which are structures producing and containing spores) that are located along the margin of the underside of the leaflets. The plant is known for its lush, leathery, blue-green fronds, and its tendency to form clumps or tufts.
