Looking for Angiopteris evecta

[RiversOFT]

Anyone growing Angiopteris evecta ?

Mule's foot fern, got them growing as invasives on the big island.  A very impressive plant, I keep going back & forth about whether I want to devote the space for one.  They are ferns so I guess you could try to get spores from somewhere.  They come up here as volunteers, near places where they are grown (like the Hawaii Tropical Botanic Garden).

Angiopteris get HUGE! Unless you have a rather large conservatory/greenhouse, I doubt they would survive outside in St. Augustine

Yeah, I am living where I can plant it outside & I am still debating whether I want to tie up the space with it.  You would need an extremely large greenhouse to attempt one of these under glass.
