Sažetak
This sequel provides a historical overview of collections of ferns (Monilophyta; Polypodiopsida or
Polypodiophyta) grown in the Zagreb Faculty of Science Botanical Garden between 1895 and 2021.
Although opinions on the systematics, classification, nomenclature and taxonomy of “true” ferns still
diverge greatly, Equisetaceae and Psilotaceae are commonly included. At least 376 taxa of native and
cultivated ferns from 29 families have been grown in the Botanical Garden during the last 126 years.
Unfortunately, the complete COVID-19-lockdown, devastating earthquakes and weather extremes of
2020, extending to 2021, diminished our collections. Today we are growing 86 taxa within 20 families
of ferns and their closest relatives.
