Lygodium palmatum in N. America – To me all these are same and most likely Lygodium flexuosum. It is lygodium flexuosum both L. japonicum and L. flexuosum grow at the Subash Chandra Boase Botanical Garden – I mean the I.B.G., Calcutta. But your photos are flexuosum, I reckon. The plant is Lygodium flexuosum. But, the name of the garden refered to by … is perhaps not Subhas Chandra Bose Garden, it is Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose Indian Botanic Garden (Sir, it is a mix up between names of two famous luminaries of India- both bengalee). Silly me! I thought the two Boses were both the same person all these years! I had just thought he was a man of exceedingly varied talents and interests! I stand corrected – and thanks! It was easier just to call it the Indian Botanic Garden – maybe in 10 years it will become Mamata’s garden! Same renaming goes on in modern Britain too sometimes – just as long as we never get any “Blair Streets”, I hope!!
Saw this fern climbing on another tree in Pali, Maharashtra on 23/11/12. Except these two pictures, I’ve no more details to add.
