Here in Florida the Resurrection Fern doesn't just grow on Live Oak trees; in the first photo below it's growing on a Red Tips shrub and the second photo shows it growing on a Juniperus of some sort. When we have really dry periods without much rainfall, these ferns begin to look pretty pathetic as shown in the third photo:
We cut down a shrub a year or so ago that had the fern growing on a few branches and I saved a small piece of wood with the fern attached ... but alas, it didn't survive.
