	During the springtime, ferns will produce fertile fronds known as "fiddleheads" [5]. These fiddleheads are covered with sori and have the sole purpose of reproduction [1]. This fern becomes fertile in May and ends its reproductive period in June [4]. Ferns reproduce differently from other plants; they have a sporophytic life cycle [2]. First, the sporangium from a mature adult plant will open and release the egg and hopefully get find male sori to start the germination process [2]. After the first fertilization, the zygote begins to become a gametophyte/Prothallium. Once the Prothallium has matured it will undergo a second fertilization [2]. This second fertilization will mark the beginning of the Cinnamon ferns' journey to maturity and the cycle can begin again [2].

	''Osmunda cinnamomea'', more commonly known as the Cinnamon [[fern]], is a deciduous perennial fern [4]. It looks very similar to the Interrupted, Royal, and Sensitive ferns because of its composition, but using the reproductive fronds you can tell them apart [1]. The Cinnamon fern has cinnamon-colored fiddleheads specially used for reproduction, and that's where it gets its name [1].

	Cinnamon ferns have long green fronds that are typically 2-3' in length but can reach up to 6' [5]. The blades of these fronds are pinnate, which means they share a common axis from which the pinna or the leaflets will grow [1]. Leaflets are deeply lobed, come to a point, and are about ten inches in length [1]. This fern likes to grow in groups or clumps in very moist environments [5]. During the spring, spore-bearing fronds will develop on this plant, these are known as "fiddleheads" [5]. These fiddleheads emerge from the base of the fern for reproduction [5]. Fiddleheads on Cinnamon ferns are anywhere from 2-4' long, are very stiff, and have a yellow-greenish color [5]. On the outside of these reproductive fronds, there are small cinnamon-colored balls. These are their sori and sporangium [3].		Cinnamon ferns have long green fronds that are typically 2-3' in length but can reach up to 6' [5].

	The Cinnamon fern is not used as a food source by any wildlife, but it does have uses. Parts of this fern are used by Warblers and hummingbirds for their nests [1]. Brown Thrashers and Veeries are reported to live in the base of this fern and claim it as their nest [1]. In the past Cinnamon ferns have been used by the Abnaki and Menominee Native Americans for food and medicinal purposes [1]. They used a concoction of root material and rubbed it into affected joints to relieve pain [1].		The Cinnamon fern is not used as a food source by any wildlife, but it does have uses.
