Hi,

I think this might be, instead of a fern, some kind of dwarf bamboo. Pleioblastus Chino Elegantissimus? Pleioblastus chino "Murakamiensis" ? Pleioblastus chino "Tsuboi" ?

Just a few wild guesses. It's an interesting looking plant whatever it is.

I am pretty sure that is a Fern. I have it's very small brother or sister in my Fern collection.

I believe it is: Pteris nipponica 'Albo-lineata' ( Silver Ribbon Fern ) At least that is what the tag says, that is in it.

I posted a link to a photo of a similar Fern. I found it on www.fernridgefarms.com. I didn't buy mine there. I happened to be given it, as a gift bought from a local place in town. I really like this Fern and was happy to see another one similar to mine on this site.

Thanks for making my day!!

Wow, it really does look a lot like the Pteris nipponica! So unusual I thought it was perhaps a dwarf bamboo. It's native to Japan I assume? What an interesting and beautiful fern.
