Unusual for its sterile, three-foot tall fronds that have brown spore cases in the middle with green pinnae both above and below.

Tree on the Whitemud Ravine Nature Reserve trail forcing hikers to split path. This photo is simply gorgeous if you are looking for a dark-colored desktop wallpaper.
Interrupted Fern. Osmunda claytoniana
Cultivated, 1 MAY 2010, Toronto ON.
