Asplenium Ruta-muraria Rootstock of Lady Fern (Two parts) Sori of Lady Fern.

As the jointed stipes, harking back to some ancient mode of fern growth, fall away from the rootstocks after their year of greenness, they leave behind a scar as in Solomon's seal.

The young ferns should be transplanted in early spring with as much of the long, running rootstock as possible.
