It started with just one plant and now we have them all over the garden. I do not consider them as weeds but beautiful ferns that adorn our garden No doubt they proliferate beyond our expactations but we can always pull those that we do not need I also use those leaves in flower arrangements. Some nurseries sell these ferms They have medicinal properties as well

You are right But in my garden they are weeds as they just proliferate.

I believe these plants are also common in my area. They can make your place look nice without requiring much maintenance or care; as long as you plant them and water them sparingly, they will thrive.

@allknowing oh yes because they have the tendency to monopolize when they love the conditions of your garden.

The ferns look very healthy and are better than looking at bare earth.

Actually in our garden they grow as weed but they are known as Boston ferns that clear the air.

It’s a blessing when a plant thrives so well in our space, specially one that’s both beautiful and useful.
