Re: Asplenium hemionitis T reneforme

Hi Guys

A few years back we had a workshop at the fern meeting including the use of
our microscope.

As you can see the spore pattern of T. reniforme, it is absolutely
magnificent.

The sori change to a yellow afterwards.

To members viewing it, it was the highlight of the meeting.

Try this for the full web site, very well done.
