These plants feature prominently in magic and medicine, while often being grown for ornamental purposes. __TOC_ Both mosses and ferns are limited to forested areas, from the arctic to the equator, so the knowledge is of little value if the character is located in an area of grasslands or desert. Moreover, some of the benefits below cannot be enjoyed in lands that have become intensely cultivated, as sufficient patches of moss or ferns cannot be found. However, it is also true that many buildings are cultivated to be shrouded in moss and many gardens planted to be carpeted with ferns, so that these things will be of use to the character with this knowledge.
