Maidenhair Fern Tincture & Alcohol-Free Extract

Maidenhair Fern (Adiantum capillus-veneris), the southern maidenhair or Venus hair fern, is a delicate perennial fern of the Pteridaceae family, native to warm temperate and tropical regions on every continent, growing on damp limestone, cliffs and wells. It forms a soft clump 20-40 cm tall of arching fronds with shiny, wiry black stalks and fan-shaped, pale green leaflets that shed water, the trait behind the Latin name Adiantum, "unwetted". Spores form under the rolled leaflet margins. We extract the dried herb.
