I bought this little package at home depot garden area and was
surprised to see that the product was what looked like a half moon. I
thought that fern's could only propagate through spores? Anyhow never
heard of this type and it looks like a Boston Fern, that was what
attracted me to it in the first place. That half moon object could be
a tuber of some sort? I googled, but it does not say anything about a
tuber.

Yes you are correct that ferns reproduce by spores. That is a rather
lengthy
process, so they are also grown by divisions of the crown/roots. That
is
what is usually sold in those little packages. *Plant it in rich,
moist soil and
keep moist,but not overly wet. I would start it in a pot until you see
some new
growth, then keep it in the pot or set it outside as you wish.

Yes, apparently that is what i would be waiting for. I was just
curious...the package had no description on it...if it did, I wouldn't
be asking.
