Pellaea Angustifolia

Rock fern, scientifically known as Pellaea angustifolia, is a unique and resilient plant native to the rocky habitats of South America. This fern thrives in harsh environments, where it clings to crevices and tolerates extreme temperatures and limited moisture. Its narrow, lance-shaped leaves are adapted for survival in nutrient-poor soils, making it a hardy species. Despite its delicate appearance, the rock fern is a symbol of tenacity in the wild. It is often overlooked but plays a vital role in stabilizing rocky ecosystems.
