This extensive genus includes species from all climates, 

 and in addition to the many distinct species there are 

 numerous garden varieties. They vary considerably, 

 some having simple, or undivided fronds, and others 

 have broad-spreading fronds with numerous small 

 pinnules. They also vary in habit ; most of them may 

 be raised from spores ; some are proliferous from the 

 fronds, others from the roots. For general culture, see 

 FERNS.
