The polypody family in Belgium:
Ferns belong to a group of primitive plants which appeared on Earth even before the dinosaurs. They made the change from water to land plants. Ferns are spore producing plants without the colour and splendour we know from flowering plants, still beloved both in gardens as indoors. In nature, they mostly prefer moist, relatively shady places. The Polypodiaceae family is one of the largest fern families; Two native species of Polypodium are known in Belgium Polypodium vulgare and Polypodium interjectum, but rarely they hybridise to form Polypodium x mantoniae.
