Monarch fern Microsorum scolopendria

Latin nameObservation dateLocation
Microsorum scolopendria5.12.2021St Lucia, South Africa

There are many introduced plants in Europe, which often damage the native flora. There are also some in Africa, of course, and I photographed one in a national park on the Indian Ocean coast. The fern is native to the Pacific.

Maybe because its growth spreads quickly and has binding roots, thereby destroying native plants

Is this fern a plant that can be consumed? Because in my area there are also ferns and these can be used as cooked vegetables with a delicious taste.
