Call me Fern
Ferns.
A fern is a member of a group of vascular plants that reproduce via spores and have neither seeds nor flowers.
Ferns are plants that do not have flowers. Ferns generally reproduce by producing spores. Similar to flowering plants, ferns have roots, stems and leaves. ... In the past, ferns had been loosely grouped with other spore-bearing vascular plants, often called “fern allies”.
What is special about ferns?
Ferns are unique in land plants in having two separate living structures, so the ferny plant that we see out in the bush produces spores, and those spores, when they are released, don't grow straight back into a new ferny plant. They grow into a little tiny plant that we call a gametophyte.
