Name: Basket Fern

Scientific: Drynaria rigidula

A.K.A.: Oak Leaf Fern, Bird's Nest Fern

This Variation: This is a High Poly model. A Low Poly version is also available.

Notes: This plant occurs in tropical and sub-tropical South-East Asia and Oceania, including eastern Queensland, Australia. It is a very adaptable species: it grows on trees in rainforest and tall open forest, where it can form huge colonies high in the canopy, it also grow on rocks in more open areas, it grows as a much smaller plant sporadically amongst rocks in open forest, and it can also be found growing in the ground in poor sandy soils of old dune formations. The fern has two types of frond: fertile foliage fronds and sterile nest fronds. The dark green foliage fronds are large, anything up to 120cm, with elongated stalks. The nest fronds are narrowly ovate, and have smaller rounded leaves, basal to the foliage fronds. They persist after turning brown and dying and form a sort of basket around the base of the plant.
