Rumohra adiantiformis 'Leatherleaf Fern'- The Leatherleaf Fern or Marginal Shield Fern is an evergreeen fern which typically forms a non-spreading, vase-shaped clump to 1.5 to 2 feet (infrequently to 3 feet) tall. This is a woodland fern which is most often found in shaded crevices of rocky ledges and bluffs. Leatherleaf Fern features grayish-green, deeply cut, leathery fronds (15 to 20 inches long).
Peak Period: Middle Devonian (410 to 360 million years ago) In their prehistoric heyday, ferns dominated landscapes. Many evolved into modern plants, and more than 12,000 species thrive today. From big tree ferns to tiny, wispy strains, they reproduce from spores found beneath their fronds, or leaves.
