Pyrrosia 'Tosa Daio' is a superbly crested form of the evergreen Pyrrosia lingua from Japan. The 7" tall fronds are deeply cut, with crested tips that look as if they have been sheared. The new growth emerges very hairy, giving a stunning grey appearance to the foliage. Like all Pyrrosia lingua cultivars, it spreads epiphytically across both wood and rock, although when grown on a slope will also thrive in a well-drained soil. Where it isn't winter hardy, tongue ferns make great hanging baskets.
