Fractal fern, Noosa National Park There's something mesmerising about the same architecture repeated at different scales, lovely pattern. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekPForPatterns #photography #plants #ferns #abstract #fractals #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

Looking down on a large horizontal fern leaf. The main rib runs roughly left to right across the middle of the frame, and branching off it at regular staggered intervals are fronds, each of which in turn has frondlets branching off in the same pattern, in turn with individual leaves branching off in the same pattern again. The whole is a bright green.

Since we are talking #ferns, would you like to hear about how Boughton Cobb, author of Peterson Field Guide to Ferns, was a “well, actually” guy? I bought this 1963 book at a used book sale and just got around to looking at it today.

I love Royal Fern. There’s a lovely stand of them at a nearby wetlands, one of my favorite places. So, checking the entry…

“By some it is considered our finest fern; actually it is too coarse really….”

C’mon, dude!

Aside from that, it’s quite a good book.

Peeking into a forested area with the ground covered with leafy ferns, and the sunlight shining between the trees to illuminate the ferns.

Mosses and mushrooms and ferns, oh my

A tree trunk covered in moss. Some thin shelf mushrooms are growing out of it. They're a little wavy with burgundy and cream and green stripes. In the background are green ferns

And some ferns incoming
#ferns

Several ferns emerging from the ground. They're long and thin and tightly coiled. The one closest to us is starting to break the coil shape as it gets ready to unfurl

I wanted to see if #FernFriday could be a thing? I was walking in the Beauregard Town Neighborhood in Downtown #BatonRouge, #Louisiana when I came across these Resurrection #Ferns, Pleopeltis polypodioides, growing on the base of a tree. I thought they looked photogenic in the little patches of #moss they were growing in. The recent rains have insured they are well hydrated and unfurled. #Mosstodon probably also applies here.

This photo shows a small patches of dark green moss and light green Resurrection Fern fronds growing on the bark at the base of a tree.

This photo shows darker moss and bark with much longer and lighter Resurrection Fern fronds extending outwards.

One of my favorite things to come across while hiking is a scene like this. Ferns as far as the eye can see.

#SilentSunday

a closeup of a backlit nature floor scene, with some segmented bits of illuminated translucent moss at the bottom, and a scraggly furry fern-like plant growing low to the ground above the blurry other elements; the scene was lit by a brief window of sun through an otherwise cloudy day

Annual tree fern crew-cut day. Lots of new growth/fiddleheads. All the ferns have enjoyed this spring rain.
Our widest tree fern only needed minimal pruning as she lives under the shelter of a couple of Redwoods and gets less frost damage. Some of her fronds are about 6 feet/2metres. She was in bad shape when we bought this place. Now she's living her best life.
