Kim, can you post a picture. I have never seen this one.

Hi Austral gem ia an asplenium hybrid 'found'and or created by Chris Goudey of Austral ferns, victoria. australia. i don't remember what 2 aspleniums(nz?)it is created from but unlike some of the other nz hybrids that have crossed with asp bulbiferum the hybrids get 'pups' so can be prorgated that way, where as AG doesn't get 'pups' and even thogh mine looks like it has plenty of spore i believe it is sterile. It is a lovely fern and i think itis being tissue cultured and distributed through the nursery trade.

Regards to all

PS I just googledimages "aspleniunm+austral+gem" and there is 3 nice pics and descriptions

Thanks Dee, I should have done that myself. It seems this one is now available here in the US and it is a cross between Asplenium dimorphum and Asplenium diforme and is sterile. I love Aspleniums so I will be on the lookout for this one.

I did not realize there had been posts made but thanks for the info. I have a baby off of mine harrywitmore if you would like one. I am just getting into ferns so I do not have too many different ones.
