Woodwardia virginica
"Virginia Chain Fern"
Chain ferns are Facultative Wet members of the Blechnaceae Faimily. Their leaves are bright green and display a characteristic "chain like" venation pattern on each pinnule. They are deciduous ferns with an affinity for acidic wetlands with plenty of sphagnum in the groundcover.
These were photographed a couple of weeks back near Big Shoals State Park in Florida.
