Scientific Names

Read about Platycerium biforme in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Platycerium biforme, Blume. According to Blume's plate and description, this differs from all other kinds in having the spores borne on a special appendage, which is kidney-shaped and attached below the first fork. Blume says there are 2 such appendages; that the barren lvs. are roundish, entire below, lobed above: fertile lvs. 3-5 ft. long, many times forked, pale green. Java.—The fertile lvs. of P. biforme are said to grow 15 ft, long sometimes. The picture in Gn. 4, p. 295, labeled P. biforme seems to be distinct and anomalous, though somewhat like P. grande. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
