Asplenium Sarelii Subsp. Pekinense

Asplenium sarelii subsp. pekinense is a rare and lesser-known fern species native to eastern Asia. It thrives in humid, shaded environments, often found in forest understories where it clings to rocks or decaying wood. This subspecies is distinguished by its finely divided, lance-shaped fronds that exhibit a delicate, almost feathery appearance. Due to habitat loss and limited distribution, it is considered endangered in many regions. Its unique morphology and ecological niche make it a fascinating subject for botanists and conservationists alike.
