Field Collection Notes
Suburban garden.
"The plants were growing wild, although they were in a garden; there were plants of a wide range of sizes growing in and underneath a rock wall, including some too small to have been planted".
"It was growing with about ten others of various sizes in and below the bottom of an east facing dry stone retaining wall in a backyard. Garden relatively well maintained - I assume the ferns were left because they look nice."
