thank you John
i bought one from ABEbooks now my 3ed book on ferns
i have 5 local specie growing wild all over the property -prolly forgetting one
another 10 specie purchased here & there and again most likely forgetting one or two
several years ago i was part of fern purchase group and bought maybe a doz different specie
and not knowing anything about them assumed they would like the same conditions as the local fern
WRONG
lost all of them
trying to be more selective now days
so far so good
