Finding fronds 🇬🇧 The British Pteridologcial Society's Indoor and Tropical Fern group is studying the Davallia and trying to unscramble the mess of names of ferns sold under this genus. If you have a plant you believe to be D. griffithiana, D. tyermanii, D. trichomanoides, D. bullata, D. mariesii or D. lorrainii you can donate a specimen - a fertile frond and a 2 cm end-section of new rhizome to help with the project. Email Peterblake1952@gmail.com to get involved.
