Paesia scaberula
Paesia scaberula, a creeping fern native to New Zealand, thrives in sunlit, dry, rocky cliffs and open areas. It forms a deciduous, rhizomatous patch with finely divided, yellow-green fronds and brown stalks. The foliage emits a pleasant smell when crushed or wet, making it a distinctive addition to gardens. This fern is well-suited for drought-tolerant and fairy garden settings.
