They call my Japanese Holly Fern a cryptogam. The name does sound 'cryptic' to me, but it's really the friggin' leaves that are getting to my nerves. Initially, I thought the Jap Holly was easy to cultivate. I was practically bent on watering it, keeping the moisture and all, and also keeping it well-aired, via a wide enough container. Unfortunately, my green thumb (and nail) is turning black from all the digging but the fuckin' leaves still look as though they're ready to crumble. Also, the foliage didn't look as damn healthy as it used to be.
