    Very nice – the medial position of the sori is killer for this hybrid.

    Is this the plant from Duffy’s Swamp?

    Beautiful hybrid! Very rare in nature, I presume. By the way, do you know if David still has copies of “Henry Potter’s field guide to the hybrid ferns of NE”? I would like to buy one…

      Thanks for the link! I will buy it tonight. That website is amazing, btw… I loved that photo of the Tryons in their early days. I also enjoyed reading about Cyrus Pringle (what a beard!) and the profiles of important collections at VT.
