In what kind of setting would you find the walking fern?

Look for areas with limestone boulders or outcrops with decent shade and lots of moss growing on the boulders. I've usually seen it in mountain areas where it's cooler, sometimes in stream valleys. But without the combination of limestone, shade, and moisture, you won;'t find the plant.

It's not very common, so you may have to look in a few places before you would ever find it. I've only ever seen it in about 8 places.
