The Tongue fern
the spores are visible and are placed in lines
on the underside of the large leaves. Unripe spores
are covered with a veil (indusium), but that veil
is removed so the spore are ready to be blown away
and spread by the wind.
Most Ferns grow on the bottum of the wood, the main
reason is that ferns avoid dry periods.
