My goodness! They're ferns!!!! Very exciting plants that I would love to see. Excellent spotting.

I am just guessing that could be hard as it is from very high elevations, 11000 ft.
I don´t think someone have done that... I have seen it only in the wild....

Really wonderful. This is a totally new and exciting genus for me and I really love ferns. Do you know if they are possible to cultivate?
