Until today, me neither!
I'm making note of all factors in this post- I have no idea what prompted Miss Fern to bloom, but my assumption is that she is very, very happy.
She is 4 years old. At 2 years, I divided her and repotted. (People who "divide" maidenhair ferns are laughing as they read this. The rest of you need to know that you need an axe to divide the rootball.) She lives between two north windows, and next to a hot air duct. She's probably rootbound. We are a week after the summer solstice.
The blooms are clusters on spikes off mature stems. Each bloom is about 1/8 inch across. It has 6 curled-back petals, one each behind 6 gold-pollen tipped anthers. The blooms on this one are all near the top of the pot, so if you hang your fern, you will miss the blooms, probably.
