Do your Java Ferns ever have long brown "root-like" things growing out from it's leaves?

Hi olileon,

I think your hardscap is great but the plants you used are not flattering him...HC can fit mutch better in the front,and the eleocharis can be between the rocks and the microsorum pteropus in the back.
but it is only my opinion

Love the hardscape, but maybe as a foreground try something more organized and less distracting like hc or ug. i would prefer a grassy look more.

Those are baby roots - it's how java ferns propagate. Wait long enough and you'll see leaves - just pluck them out and poof - more ferns.
