Osmunda cinnamomea, Linn. Cinnamon Fern. Fig. 2682. Growing in clusters 2-6 ft. high or even more, the fertile Lvs. appearing earliest, entirely covered with sporangia, at first green, but becoming pale, tall, and slender, cinnamon-colored at maturity of the spores, the sterile Lvs. growing about a crown from a large creeping rootstock. N. Amer. — Very handsome for decorative purposes, especially for low grounds. The creeping sts. of this species and of the other two osmundas are always covered with a very dense tangled growth of blackish fibrous roots. These are dug up and shaken free of soil, and are then largely used as the matrix upon which to grow orchids and other epiphytes. | Osmunda cinnamomea, Linn. Cinnamon Fern. Fig. 2682.

Osmunda cinnamomea, Linn. Cinnamon Fern. Fig. 2682. Growing in clusters 2-6 ft. high or even more, the fertile Lvs. appearing earliest, entirely covered with sporangia, at first green, but becoming pale, tall, and slender, cinnamon-colored at maturity of the spores, the sterile Lvs. growing about a crown from a large creeping rootstock. N. Amer. — Very handsome for decorative purposes, especially for low grounds. The creeping sts. of this species and of the other two osmundas are always covered with a very dense tangled growth of blackish fibrous roots. These are dug up and shaken free of soil, and are then largely used as the matrix upon which to grow orchids and other epiphytes.
