Description en: Genus of about 11 species of usually evergreen, terrestrial ferns found mainly in damp, sunny or partially shaded sites, often rocky woodland margins, in Australasia. Fronds, produced in tufts from short, creeping rhizomes, are lance-shaped, pinnate or pinnatifid, and usually pink tinged when young. Fertile fronds are often more erect than sterile fronds, with slightly narrower divisions. The sori are covered by curved indusia. Doodia species are easy to grow, thriving in a rock garden or sheltered border; in frost-prone areas, grow tender and half-hardy species in a cool greenhouse.
