This evergreen fern features beautiful glossy, leathery leaflets. Coarser in effect than most ferns, this is tolerant of arid conditions, so is popular especially in the Southwestern US. Also tolerant of lime soils, and grows especially well beside sidewalks or foundations. Loves moisture, but requires good drainage. Can be easily grown in a pot and wintered indoors.
