description_en: Genus of 10 species of semi-evergreen ferns occurring on trees and rocks in the USA (Florida), Mexico, West Indies, and Central and tropical South America. They have thick, creeping rhizomes, densely covered with golden brown scales, and large, pinnate or pinnatifid, sometimes glaucous fronds. Spores are formed in groups, in one or more rows parallel to the midribs. In frost-prone climates, grow in a warm greenhouse or as houseplants; they are very effective in hanging baskets. In warmer regions, grow in a warm, sheltered border.
