Adiantum raddianum Distribution

Suplir originates from tropical and sub-tropical South America, spreading from Mexico to Argentina. This suplir has been widely introduced elsewhere as an ornamental plant and now appears in Asia, Africa and the Pacific. Suplir or Adiantum raddianum is a fern plant that is popularly used in medicine by several ethnic groups from various South American countries. Similar to other species of the genus Adiantum, this species has confirmed pharmacological activity. Some of these activities are common to other species of this genus, suggesting the existence of an interesting chemical repertoire with therapeutic applications. Among the bioactive compounds, filicene is present in high amounts.
Agroecology of Adiantum raddianum
Suplir is usually found from an altitude of 0 to 4,000 m above sea level. In Hawaii, suplir grows on all the major islands and rises from sea level to 4,400 m above sea level. In the Azores it is found on all the islands except Terceira and Corvo and rises to 400 m above sea level. Typically suplir is grown as a houseplant, where it seems to respond best in bright indirect light including diffused sunlight, but it does not like direct sunlight. If planted in full shade, the foliage will lose its vitality. Use potting soil that is moist but well-drained. The roots should not be allowed to dry out. Plants need a very humid atmosphere. Avoid placing plants in windy areas or in locations near heat registers. The preferred media is crumbly/porous, black in color like compost with a pH of 6-7.
Morphology of Adiantum raddianum
  • Fibrous roots.
  • Short spreading, irregularly branching rhizome up to 50 mm long and about 2 mm wide. The rhizome and base of the midrib are covered with dark brown scales less than 1 mm long.
  • The leaves are curved to erect , 10-50 cm long and 6-20 cm wide, and triangular in shape. The stem and stem are dark reddish brown to black and shiny lamina. Laminas are 3-4 pinnately divided, with final segments smooth, herbaceous and up to 1 cm wide. Ultimate segments are wedge-shaped and have thin, red-black stems. sori) are 'U' shaped and arranged either at the edge of the vein or at its tip and are less than 4 mm wide. Each sorus is covered with a pale or whitish membrane (indusium).

Cultivation of Adiantum raddianum
The easiest way to multiply supplies is to separate the offspring. Seedlings that are big and strong can be separated and planted in their own pots. Like other ferns, suplir can also be propagated using spores. Fertile leaves with mature sporangia are left to marinate for a day and the released spores are spread on sterile, damp media and then covered with clear plastic. The media container is then placed in a tub filled with water as high as 1 cm from the bottom of the pot to maintain humidity. After 2 weeks the spores will germinate and develop into a prothallus (heart shape). Once it has grown into a perfect spike, it can be moved to an individual pot so it can grow better.
