distribution_en:

description_en: Genus of 7 or 8 species of evergreen ferns, with short rhizomes, mainly from moist, shaded sites in tropical Asia and America. The crowded, rounded, heart-shaped or palmate fronds are usually borne on shining black stalks. Sori form a network of lines on the lower surfaces of fertile fronds, which are narrower than sterile ones. Small plantlets often develop on the main veins of the fronds, near the bases. In temperate regions, grow in a warm greenhouse or as house-plants. In warmer areas, grow as edging or at the front of a border, in containers outdoors, or in a raised bed.

hardiness_en: Frost tender.
