A fern is a member of a group of vascular plants that reproduce via spores and have neither seeds nor flowers. They differ from mosses by being vascular, i.e., having specialized tissues that conduct water and nutrients and in having life cycles in which the sporophyte is the dominant phase. In general, ferns are of minor economic importance to humans. However, fernsare popular horticultural plants and many species are grown in ornamental gardens or indoors
