Hello, I would like to try to grow this species from spores, anybody willing to give a small section of frond or know where to get some? Can’t find these anywhere. Thanks!

I have one in the garden that’s several years old, so I went out and checked on it. I am not an expert in ferns, but does this look like the structure required for spores?

The mature spores are on the lowest fronds and should appear full and plump. Those look ready to me as some has already opened (if I’m seeing correctly). Can you take a closer shot of the spores to make sure?

Yeah, the newest frond has no spore "pods", although I assume they develop later on each frond. The older leaves have the spore pods in both open and unopened condition.
