Crocodile fern foliage detail
An epiphytic fern with unique foliage detail. Some feel it resembles crocodile skin, others feel more similar to snake skin. Either way - uniquely reptilian in appearance.
I chose to present here in black and white, which enhances the detail further.
Kew Gardens data base gives the native range of Microsorum musifolium as south Myanmar down to New Guinea.
It grows well here in the temperate areas of Australia. It is a shrubby fern with rosette, leathery foliage, with potential growth of 1 m in height by 1.2 m in width.
