TAIWAN ~The Rythm of Ferns~

When I first saw this strange postcard I couldn't imaging what it was.... It seems to be a plant, ferns...


Taiwan's incredible diversity of fern species is creating a hothouse environment for interest in the oft-overlooked flora. More than 600 species from 37 fern families grow in Taiwan. As interest in ferns blossoms, moreover, these wallflowers are revealing their remarkable personalities. Ferns, it turns out, have a propensity to adapt to various environments and conditions. They sprout up in misty forests, barren lands of limestone, salt swamps and inhospitable volcanoes.
