Latin Names: Athryrium asplenioides
Type: Herbaceous
Origin: Native
Edible: The young shoots (fiddleheads) before the leaves have unfurled can be cooked but should not be eaten raw. The tuber roots can be slow baked.
Other uses: Some medicinal uses.
Note: Found these wild in the edges of the woods and under a lean-to where they were ~6" tall. I moved several of them to our gardens and they have grown much taller (3'+).
