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.
Growing Zone:
9 and higher. "Hardiness" is the capability of a plant to survive cold temperatures.

Macho macho fern!
By: Danielle Clements
Pros I like this fern because it gets so full and green.
Comments The macho fern does die back in the cold winter, but each year after the frost, I cut the dead stems off, fertilize and water. This fern comes back even more macho than the year before!
