About it
Ferns are some of the oldest plants on Earth: they grew long before the dinosaurs, and they still grow in shady woods today. They have no flowers or seeds. Instead they spread by spores, tiny specks that grow in brown dots under their leaves, which are called fronds.
Each new frond starts as a tight coil called a fiddlehead, because it looks like the curled end of a violin. Tap it and the two fiddleheads in the middle unroll into new fronds, joint by joint from the base to the tip, then roll back up. Pick a Seed in the Splash tab for a different fern. With ✋ Hands-on on, brush the fronds and they bend after your finger; let go and they spring back and sway.
