Cheilanthes myriophylla

Family: Pteridaceae, Genus: Cheilanthes

Description:

Cheilanthes myriophylla is a delicate fern native to high elevations in Salta, Argentina, thriving in well-drained rock cracks. This fern forms 6-inch tall clumps with grey-green leaves, making it a superb choice for potted displays. However, it can be challenging to grow in open gardens due to its sensitivity to excessive winter moisture. Its unique appearance and adaptability to container growth make it a fascinating addition to fern collections.
