T h e Pohjpodium deflexum seems to be more generally cultivated
th an most other species in the section Goniophlebium,
y e t in many instances the true name is unknown. Amongst
the names which it has been made to bear, P . bulbosum may
he mentioned, y e t for what reason I am at a loss to say, and
indeed where this name has been first found appears quite as
difficult to determine. I t is a F e rn easily grown, and one ivhich
flourishes u n d e r ordinary management.
