Sceptridium lunarioides

Sceptridium lunarioides, the winter grapefern, is a species of fern in the Ophioglossaceae family native to the southeastern United States. In Florida, it can be found in the western panhandle.[2] It can be found in "open grassy places in prairies, cemeteries, and weedy roadsides."[3] Like other grape ferns, it depends on a mycorrhizal association in the soil to survive.
