ʻO Ferns nā mea kanu e ulu ana ma ka malu a me nā wahi pulu, e like me nā ululāʻau, ma nā māwae a me nā awāwa, a i ʻole ma kapa o nā kahawai. ʻAʻole lākou e hana i nā hua e hoʻohua ai, akā, ʻo nā spores. Aia a puni ka honua ma kahi o 12,000 mau ʻano ʻano like ʻole, ma ko mākou mau ʻāina, aia ma kahi o 100 mau ʻano. ʻAʻole kapa ʻia ʻo Ferns he lau, akā he lau.
Ma luna o 300 miliona mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ua nui ka ferns ma ka honua. ʻOi aku ka nui o kēia mau mea kanu i kēia mau lā. ʻO ia ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai lākou he lāʻau ferns. Aia kekahi o ia mau mea ma ka ʻāina ʻāina i kēia lā. ʻO ka hapa nui o kā mākou lanahu paʻa mai nā ferns make.
Pehea e hanau ai na ferns?
Hoʻoulu hou nā Ferns me ka pua ʻole. Akā, ʻike ʻoe i nā kiko nui a poʻe ma ka ʻaoʻao lalo o nā lau. ʻO kēia nā puʻu o nā capsules. He māmā lākou i ka hoʻomaka a huli i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻeleʻele i ʻeleʻele.
Ke oʻo ʻia kēia mau capsule, hāmama lākou a hoʻokuʻu i kā lākou spores. Lawe ka makani iā lākou. Inā hāʻule lākou i ka lepo ma kahi malu a maʻemaʻe, e hoʻomaka lākou e ulu. Kapa ʻia kēia mau mea kanu liʻiliʻi he pre-seedlings.
Hoʻoulu ʻia nā ʻano hānau kāne a me nā kāne ma ka ʻaoʻao lalo o ka hua mua. A laila, ʻauʻau nā pūnaʻi kāne i nā pūnana hua wahine. Ma hope o ka hoʻoulu ʻana, ulu ka mea kanu ʻōpio. Hoʻokahi makahiki ka mea holoʻokoʻa.
