| Hi, I know very little about ferns, but I found some growing on a brick wall that I have never seen around here before. They have rhizomes similar to rabbits foot fern, only thinner. The sori grow in a line along the edges of the leaves.
Anyone know what variety they are? Thanks in advance! -Burt

| It looks like it could be Pteris vittata, a fern that is native to Asia but which has escaped into the wild. |

| It looks like you are right. Thank you! :-) |
