The Wart Fern is a hardy, tropical fern recognized for its leathery, glossy fronds marked with small, wart-like bumps. It thrives in partial shade to filtered light and adapts well to a range of soil conditions, provided they remain moist and well-drained. With its rugged texture and spreading growth habit, this fern is excellent for naturalistic plantings, groundcover use, and adding depth to shaded landscape areas.
