    It wasn't easy, lol. First, I thought for sure it was some kind of palm and wasted a lot of time searching through palm species. But, then, I realized that it looked so fern-y. So, I looked through tons of fern species until I found the Schizaea genus. It was a fun search...really! Posted 2 years ago
