Athyrium Macrocarpon Var. Atkinsonii

Athyrium macrocarpon var. atkinsonii is a rare and striking fern known for its elegant, lace-like fronds. Native to the mountainous regions of southeastern China, this variety thrives in cool, humid environments. Its unique foliage features elongated, arching leaves with a delicate, feathery appearance. The plant is highly sought after by botanists and collectors due to its ornamental value and limited distribution. Despite its beauty, it remains under threat from habitat loss and overharvesting.
