A stout tropical fern with large fronds that are golden yellow beneath. These evergreen terrestrial or epiphytic ferns have short rhizomes and usually wiry spreading runners. The pinnate vein pattern is also visible on these highly compound leaves. The round sori (clusters of spore-bearing organs) are in two rows near the margins on the underside of the pinnae. The fronds grow upright at first, then arch gracefully downwards. They grow in lovely arching rosette shaped and spread by runners.
