In spring, long-stalked, pinnate or deeply pinnatisect sterile fronds arise singly at short intervals from creeping rhizomes, dying down at the first frost. The fertile fronds are 2-pinnate, with contracted, bead-like black segments curled in to cover the sori, and are borne in late summer, persisting throughout winter. O. sensibilis will thrive at the edge of water, or in a damp, shady border.
