Description Pyrungata have more than 50 fern species, maybe the most intersting is Dicksonia arboreus.
It's the smallest known tree fern and, differnt to he rest of it's family a epiphyte.
The plants grow at the tribes of bigger trees and grow one above the other, so they form together a trrace like facade.

an interesting and amazing species. Other ferns have evolved to gigantic sizes?

Dicksonia, great! I know someone who will love this one. I always thought of using the Dicksonia fern in speculative evolution as a tribute to the (in)famous Dougal Dixon
