They must have reclassified since my copy of "The Southern Fern Guide" was written (1964). It lists only the one species and says that it grows on trees and on rocks. In MY neighborhood it grows along the top of live oak branches. Anyway, it is a lovely little fern. I grow it around some of my bald cypress bonsai (it grows just fine in mossy bonsai soil).
