[4] This deciduous fern has a creeping rhizome and a tuft-shape array of fronds. The fronds ...

[6] It is hardy zones 5 to 11. Propagation is by division in spring, separating the small crowns from the larger crowns ...
At least one study has shown association between P. polypodioides and moss, [8] indicating that this fern may rely on moss for some of its water needs. Resurrection ferns rehydrated in their uncurled state. Resurrection ferns accumulate sugar in dehydrated cells in order to protect them and stabilize the membranes and proteins in the dry state.
