Asplenium dareoides
A small, finely divided spleenwort from the cool temperate rainforests of southern Chile and adjacent Argentina, reaching Tierra del Fuego, the Juan Fernández Islands and the Falklands. It grows on mossy trunks, logs and rocks, as an epiphyte or on the ground. It needs cool, constantly humid conditions and suffers in warm, dry rooms.
Where it grows wild
Valdivian and Magellanic temperate rainforest, on moss-covered tree trunks and branches, fallen logs and shaded rocks, and sometimes on the ground.
Most GBIF records with an elevation are near sea level to about 800 m, reflecting its lowland to lower-montane forests in southern Chile.
