King Fern #2 pot
$22.99
The king fern, scientifically known as Angiopteris evecta, presents a deceiving appearance, resembling a palm crown emerging directly from the ground. In truth, it is a vestige of a fern from the late Paleozoic era. While it stands as the sole representative of its genus in Australia, it also finds its home in other corners of Southeast Asia and Oceania. Its fronds, possibly among the longest worldwide for a fern, can extend up to 7 metres. Noteworthy places to catch a glimpse of king ferns include the Cape Tribulation roadside and the Nandroya Falls trail within the Palmerston section of Wooroonooran National Park near the Maalan Cloud Forest.
