Gristle fern

Oceaniopteris cartilaginea, synonym Blechnum cartilagineum, is known as the gristle fern or soft water fern. It is a resilient and abundant fern growing in eastern Australia, seen in rainforest and eucalyptus forest.

Blechnum cartilagineum belongs to the Blechnum genus within the Blechnaceae family. It performs reliably across temperate, subtropical zones in our experience.
