Fascinating Ferns

Their Amazing Longevity!

The leaf of the fern is known as the frond, and today varies in size from the tree fern’s 12-foot length to the tiniest mosquito fern with leaves of only 1/16 of an inch long. The frond begins in a tightly curled shape known as the crosier or fiddlehead, and during development,  unfurls to become a leaf.

We love our ferns in flower arrangements, in our gardens,  and on our nature walks. The next time you gaze at their beauty, try to fathom their emergence almost 400 million years ago!

Over the next few months, we'll have some fun exploring the origins of many of these interesting terms and how they came to be. If you are a bird lover, nature and/or history enthusiast or just curious about your environment, we think you will enjoy learning about this as much as we did.
