The length of tlie frond twelve inches, rooting at the ajiex,
and its colour a heavy green.
Asplénium reclinatum was introduced into this country in the
year 1847.
This Fern does not appear to be described in the works of
Presl, Kunze, Kaulfuss, Fee, Link, or Smith.
The A . reclinatum requires in its cultivation a similar treatment
to the other members of the section Trichomanes of As-
plenium. It will, however, require more pot-room than the
dwarfer species of this section.
A difficult species to procure, as it is not in any of our
Nurserymen’s Catalogues.
My thanks are due to Sir AVilliam Hooker, who kindly sent
me a frond of this species.
The illustration is from Sir AATlliam Hooker’s frond.
