Flowering Fern

This typical looking fern, sometimes called a Frost Fern, is known for producing small flowers (though rarely). The flowers produced by these ferns are typically white or blue, and are known to have medicinal or narcotic properties. Legend tells that this type of fern was originally created magically, by a lord of the Ice Lands, who wished to see flowers bloom within his kingdom.
