Please identify this fern
5 years ago
I appreciate your help in identifying this fern. It has large leaves, glossy, dark green, with a black stem that come singly off a pencil-thick, somewhat hairy stem. I don't believe it is hardy here in zone 7/8. The leaves are rather wavy. The leaves are about 8" long.
