My local florist uses fern leaves to garnish his arrangements. Anytime I bring home a table bouquet I'm cleaning zillions of spores off my kitchen table, and I find gametophytes in plant pots all over my house!! When I first noticed the dots under the fern leaves I thought they were bug eggs or something, but they seemed too regularly-spaced, so I did some googling and finally put the pieces together about the mysterious little green growths in my plant pots (which I'd previously clocked as mold).

[@KQEDDeepLook]

Love that!

[@Phillia_crochet]

I'm glad fern, fungi and mold reproduction was included in my country's national Biology text book for 7th grade. I didn't have to freak out seeing fern spores and sporangia from the ferns I collected from the countryside where my grandparents live.

[@KQEDDeepLook]

It's a joy to reflect on these wonders.

[@EliosMoonElios]

Fern was the fist living thing in dry land so there was not insects to help with pollination in land(in fact insects was not a thing yet) also in water plants don't need help so the pollination by insects was not a plant thing to learn at all. In fact fern was a total functional plant for hundreds of millions of years before insect become helpers.

[@EliosMoonElios]

@@Auradyme That is why Serie say only a demon-lord could see her true power and when she ask Fern if she is scared of her power Fern reveal she can see Serie's true power so yeah Fern is not a mere human being probably a very old and powerful demon-lord disguised as a human.

flowering plants do the same thing, but smaller. the pollen is a male spore. once hes brought to the flower, he sprouts into a tiny plant and makes a sperm for the female plant, which was inside the female part of the flower all along

Some ferns also can also allow another fern to grow on their sorii instead. A whole plant can grow under the leaves of another. However, depending on the conditions, it can deteriorate the fern the new plant is growing on.

Because of the balance in taste of sambal, it can be eaten with only rice. My country's favourite food that comes with sambal is Nasi Katok (knocking rice if I translated it literally) but it comes with fried chicken, sambal and rice that are wrapped in waxed butcher paper. The knocking rice actually comes from a story when people buy the rice they will need to knock on the door or the window first.😅
