i bet i have close to 3 acre's of it
when we moved i was still in the healing mode, soooooo
i paid to have the Alders removed, and i gave away 90% of the wood
but i do have more then 2 cords stacked up for emergency
we have more then 7 different species of fern growing wild here
the most obvious is the sword fern, next is lady/deer fern i haven't taken the time to figure out which one it is yet? of course we have bracken fern that grows over 6 ft tall,
but my favorite is the 5 finger maidenhair http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/164/index.html
we also have licorice fern growing on the Myrtle trees http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/153232/index.html
and a cpl of very small ground cover type ferns probably one of the spike mosses
somewhere in the county we are supposed to have giant chain fern woodwardia fimbriata
i haven't found them yet :-) i have also added to my garden area's additional fern specie's :-)
we also have many kinds of different mosses
