    Can anyone tell what kind of fern this is? I thought, maybe a tree fern, resurrection fern? ( Fern that grows on and up trees, not the Aussie variety) but it looks different than the ferns that grow up my trees.

    You've got different ferns to us Annie but it looks similar to our Common Polypody :) Leaves are a bit thinner though.

    What baffles me is the very long pointy bit at the tip. That's not typical of most ferns, having a long "sword" growing at the tip. That tip leaf is usually the smallest??? :shrug:
