Aspidium Thelypteris

Cinnamon fern, scientifically known as Aspidium thelypteris, is a striking native plant of eastern North America that thrives in moist, shady environments. With its tall, arching fronds that resemble cinnamon sticks, it is both visually appealing and ecologically valuable. This fern is often found in woodlands, stream banks, and swampy areas where it contributes to the biodiversity of the ecosystem. Its unique appearance makes it a popular choice for ornamental gardening when grown in suitable conditions. Despite its beauty, it requires careful attention to soil and moisture levels to flourish.
