RE: Australian ferns

Hi Wayne

Firstly where are you going in Aust?

Huperzia do not grow from 'cuttings' you may be able to grow by layering if
they are collected at the right time.

Many of the species are just not available, others are almost impossible to
keep alive.

Perhaps by visiting 'very' specialist collectors, some may be obtainable.

Subject: [ferns] Australian ferns

My wife and I will visit Australia for 2 months in Aug-Oct 2007. I 
was the AFS spore exchange manager for 5 yrs and my ultimate goal is 
to share these ferns or spores with other competent fern lovers. I 
love primitive ferns and would like to legally collect some ferns and 
their allies listed below. I love these plants and wouldn't dream of 
harming and native populations. Are there any Aussies that would be 
willing to help me in this endeavor. I would pay all expenses 
involved plus something for your trouble. I was the AFS spore 
exchange manager for 5 yrs and my ultimate goal is to share these 
ferns or spores with other competent fern lovers.
