"Fernet is a mail-list group that discusses any topic relating to ferns and fern-allies. We welcome participants at all levels from beginner to professional pteridologist. We hope our discussions will be lively and helpful. However, we do ask that participants extend courtesy to each other and that personal flaming be avoided...ferns are delicate, cool organisms and it is hoped that we can all maintain our "cool" too while discussing our favorite organisms. Thank you for your interest in Fernet". To subscribe to Fernet, send a message with this one line:
