Name: Bracken
Scientific: Pteridium aquilinum
A.K.A.: Common Bracken, Bracken Fern, Brackenfern, Brake, Pasture Brake, Eagle Fern
Notes: An adaptable plant, bracken readily colonises disturbed areas and grows in pastures, deciduous woodlands, coniferous woodlands, and hillsides. It is aggressive, spreads quickly, and is very difficult to eradicate once established. Bracken is found in temperate and subtropical regions in both hemispheres and has a more or less global distribution. It is native to Europe, Eastern Asia and North America. In America, it is found throughout the continental United States and much of Canada. It ranges north to southern Alaska, and south it reaches portions of Mexico. Its fronds are used as thatching for houses and as fodder for animals. The young fronds and fiddleheads are cooked as vegetables or in soups in some parts of Asia. However, the leaves of bracken contain an array of poisonous and carcinogenic compounds and may be harmful to consume.
