Resurrection ferns dried and hydrated. Resurrection fern (Pleopeltis michauxiana) and tropical resurrection fern (Pleopeltis polypodioides) While I'd seen spare populations of resurrection ferns when I lived in Maryland, I really became aware of them when I read "Light a Distant Fire," an historic novel about Osceola and the Seminoles by Lucia St. Clair Robson.

July and August are not the favorite gardening months in central Florida - zone 9b. Because of the heat and humidity, often too much or not enough rain, it can be quite difficult for both garden and gardener. So far, my summer garden is looking better than some past years.
