Asplenium aethiopicum  

Asplenium aethiopicum (Burm.f.) Bech, commonly known as Forked or Shredded Spleenwort, is a native Western Australian fern (Florabase, 2013). It is a hardy, but attractive fern species and the common name "spleenwort" refers to the old belief that the plant could help cure ailments of the spleen. Asplenium is a popular group of ferns prized for their frond symmetry, frond texture and sheen and neat growth habit. Asplenium aethiopicum generally cultivates well and is sold in many countries (Jones, 1987).
