Is that a maiden hair in first pix upper right hand corner?
I'm with Jillie...ferns are my second favorite....I have several different kinds planted next to my front door nestled around a water fountain and accented with begonias and impatients!
What a combo ferns, cactus, and succulents!![[Roll Eyes]](im/rolleyes.gif)

I couldn't find the name tag for the first fern... it's buried somewhere under the snow!
It's a Columbine that you see in the top corner of the first photo....
