Polypodium L. es un género de alrededor de 75-100 especies de helechos, distribuidos alrededor del mundo, principalmente en las regiones templadas del hemisferio norte. Pueden ser epífitas o terrestres, y unas pocas especies crecen sobre rocas. Tienen rizomas rastreros, escamosos y marrón rojizo, y frondes pinnadas o bipinnadas de un verde claro a medio y largamente pecioladas, normalmente con menos de 75 cm de largo. Con tendencia a producir frondes crestadas y otras formas raras, eran muy populares entre los coleccionistas victorianos. En cuanto al cultivo, su resistencia a las heladas varía considerablemente entre las especies, pero por lo demás se cultivan con facilidad en cualquier suelo húmedo y bien drenado en sombra moteada. La adición de humus fomenta un follaje frondoso. Se multiplican por división o sembrando esporas.
