I was also told to be careful with ferns, but I'm a beginner, so you may want to double check.

most ferns love fertilizer, but hate salts.
thus when fertilizing leaching is essential.
Also the faster a fern grows, the more apt to accept fertilizer... certain hardy ferns that grow slowly have little need.

ie can't fert a macho fern and a korean rock fern the same

Thank you Darius, JDee and DeepRoots....from reading here I gather Morning Glories/Moon Flowers also have a dislike for it.

Are there others?
