Asplenium scolopendrium var. scolopendrium (Phyllitis scolopendrium, Newman. Scolopendrium vulgare, Smith. S. officinarum, Hort.). Hart's Tongue. Lvs. 10-15 in. long, cordate at base or sometimes long-eared, 1-2 in. wide, herbaceous, in tufts sometimes of 50 or more lvs. Probably the raret wild fern in Amer., growing only in three localities in Tenn. and N. Y. is on steep rubble limestone slopes, where it roots among loose stones, usually hidden by jewel-weed. In England it is a common wall fern, and has given rise to more than a hundred varieties some of the commonest of which are listed below. One or two American dealers offer the species for sale. The differences between the numerous English forms depend mainly on differences in the crispiness and forking of the lvs. and on combinations of these two features. The following varieties are offered commonly in England under Scolopendrium vulgare: vars. Drummondae superba, crispum, crispum multifidum, crispum muricato-fimbriatum, ramo-cristatum, Daedalea, sagitto-grandiceps, Hort. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
