<upd_detl>ぜんまい is also 発条 (spring) so 薇 is more common than the raw counts suggest (but I wouldn't have tagged it as rK even at 4% of total counts).
The kana forms still dominate in culinary contexts. 
I can't find a source for "osmund". "fiddlehead fern" doesn't refer to a species.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I don't have any objections to the edit, but re: the [rK] tag at 4%, I just assumed that most of the n-gram counts were from personal names. I should have included that explanation, though.</upd_detl>
