Resurrection fern is a type of fern that has the amazing ability to survive in extremely dry conditions by appearing dead and brown, but springing to life again when exposed to moisture. As such, it is also known as the "rose of Jericho," "Jericho flower," or "false rose of Jericho." It is also sometimes called the "miracle fern," "dead man's hand," or "life-everlasting fern." This fascinating plant is not only beautiful but has also been used for medicinal purposes. The various names associated with the resurrection fern highlight its unique qualities and the wonder it inspires in those who encounter it.
