The leaves of ferns are called fronds.

As a young frond unwinds and opens, it is called a fiddlehead.

The regular fronds are called trophophylls. The fronds that produce spores are called sporophylls.

At what latitude do ferns grow?

I am pretty sure at most latitudes. More close to the ground though. At a low elevation or medium elevation. Not too high of an elevation though. I am also pretty sure that Ferns a grown more north. the lowest latitude they can be at is probably 20 North in the northern hemisphere. I am not so sure about the Southern Hemisphere. They Might not even Grow in the southern Hemisphere. Also, ferns grow at 40 - 1800 meters, 131- 6,00 feet. Also, you can try looking up more information under a google search. You can try typing: where ferns are grown, where ferns exist, All About ferns, There Is an article that is called where the ferns grow thanks
