Pollination Info
Pollination Information for Brilliance Autumn Fern (Dryopteris erythrosora 'Brilliance')
The Brilliance Autumn Fern (Dryopteris erythrosora 'Brilliance') is a fern species that relies on wind and water for pollination instead of insects.
The small spore-like structures, or sori, found on the underside of the fern's fronds produce the male gametes, or sperm cells, that are released into the surrounding environment when the frond dries out.
The female gametes, or eggs, are produced on separate fronds and are fertilized by the airborne sperm cells once they land on the frond's surface.
More specifically, the sori on the fern's fronds contain hundreds of sporangia, each of which contains spores surrounded by a protective layer. When the sporangia dry out, they split open and release the spores, which are carried away by the wind to surrounding plants.
Once they land on the surface of a receptive plant's frond, the spores grow into a gametophyte, which is a small, heart-shaped structure that produces both male and female sex organs.
When the male and female sex organs are mature, the male gametes are released and carried by the wind to the female sex organs, where they fertilize the eggs, leading to the formation of new ferns.
