36. Rabbit’s Foot Fern is an aptly named plant; just look at its rhizomes!

If you want a truly unique fern, the Rabbit’s Foot Fern is an attractive and exotic looking option. Rabbit’s Foot Ferns are epiphytic, meaning they take their nutrients from sources other than soil, including trees and the air. To survive this way, Rabbit’s Foot Ferns sends out large, fuzzy rhizomes that resemble rabbit’s feet, although some also think they look like blonde spider legs. As an epiphytic plant, they are adept at pulling nutrients and pollutants from the air, so they are an ideal air purifying plant and would provide a lot of entertainment for children with their fuzzy rhizomes.
