  • Appearance: Cinnamon fern is a large, deciduous fern with fronds that can reach heights of 2 to 5 feet (0.6 to 1.5 meters). The fronds are pinnate, meaning they are divided into leaflets along a central stem. The most distinctive feature is the fertile fronds, which resemble spikes or sticks of cinnamon. These cinnamon-colored fertile fronds emerge in the center of the fern and contrast with the green, sterile fronds.

  • Habitat: Cinnamon fern is commonly found in wetland habitats, including swamps, bogs, and the edges of ponds and streams. It prefers consistently moist to wet soils and can tolerate periodic inundation.

  • Native Range: This fern species is native to eastern North America, from eastern Canada down to the southeastern United States. It is one of the more widely distributed fern species in North America.

  • Reproduction: Cinnamon fern reproduces through spores, which are produced in the cinnamon-colored fertile fronds. These fertile fronds release spores when mature, allowing the fern to reproduce and spread to new areas.

  • Wildlife Habitat: Cinnamon fern provides habitat and cover for various wildlife, including insects, amphibians, and small mammals. It can create dense colonies in wetland areas, offering shelter and a microclimate for these creatures. Additionally, some birds may use the fern's fronds as nesting material.

Care Instructions

Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
