Lastreopsis microsora
Latin name:
Lastreopsis microsora
Common name:
Creeping shield fern
Keywords:
microsora, lastreopsis, creeping shield fern
Fronds will grow to 90 cm over time and the creeping rhizome does form adjoining colonies of microsora's. Not invasive however and because of its creeping nature does make for a good ground cover.
Like the shade and plenty of moisture so damp areas are good for this fern.
