The ferns grown in specific pH ranges with higher levels of acid such as the bulblet bladder fern are only found on limestone.
They form clusters of underground bulbs that, unless every one is uprooted, will continue to send up shoots and form new bulblets of their own, spreading throughout the garden.
New shoots will appear from the base of the bulbs after a few weeks and new bulblets will form on the base.
