Dryopteris Unidentata Var. Acutidens
Cinnamon fern, scientifically known as Dryopteris unidentata var. acutidens, is a striking native plant that thrives in moist, shaded environments. With its distinctive cinnamon-brown fertile fronds, it adds a unique visual appeal to woodland gardens and natural landscapes. This fern is often found in wetlands, stream banks, and forest understories across eastern North America. Its graceful appearance and ecological importance make it a popular choice for both ornamental and conservation purposes. Despite its beauty, it requires careful attention to soil and moisture conditions to flourish.
