Mary, I posted in the Fern forum, hoping someone will come forward with an easy way to differentiate between the two. I'm guessing I have A. aleuticum as apparently A. pedatum does not thrive in the PNW and will often die off. I've had my fern for several years, and even moved it back in 2014. Everything I could find online was a bit too scientific for me to sort out though. I'm hoping for something simple, like counting stamens to differentiate between an azalea and rhodie.
