Default Ferns!

Hi everyone

Ummmm....... I have ferns growing in some of my nep pots....I realised that ferns do grow very well and quite big in areas where you find neps in the wild don't they? So i have one more pot left which is a mixture of LFS and normal potting soil and somehow among all the pots which has ferns in them.But in the wild they grow normally in low nutrient soil along with CPs.That pot contains the most fern growth and also some different kind of fern...I like the growth of ferns on my nep pots because it gives a little more leafy look on the pot you know?

I also wanna know more about this guys and how they grow or what media they do best on.So that maybe one day i can actually even start growing these commen ferns.Anyone has ever even tried "cultivating" them??? I have 2 different kind of fern...One has much more "leaves" and less visible stem and doesn't grow tall while the other one grows taller and taller...Has less leaves and has a lot of "stems"....So anyone knows where to learn more about these guys?And also if you have them growing everywhere take a pic and post it here

Ken
