Comments:
Has lacy, narrowly triangular, arching leaves that are yellowish-green. Fronds releases a fragrance remanence of freshly mowed hay when foliage bruised or cruished. Will grow in a wide range of soils, including rocky ones. Will grow in full sun when kept moist. Used as a ground cover, but spreads too fast for use in small gardens.
