Monday, June 15, 2009. hillii cultivar with wide, few fingered fertile fronds. This staghorn fern can take temperatures from 40 to 90 degrees - they are kept outside year long. This cultivar prefers morning light or a dappled light all day with a mild breeze. These particular ferns are from a sire that was originally owned by Charles de France.
Tuesday, September 1, 2009. Bon Ton - A delightful, petite subminiature bifurcatum cultivar. Personally, I have yet to see this cultivar offered anywhere. My Sire was acquired from the Tony Barrett collection in July 2006. Much of his collection came from Bob Shortt after he died several years ago. Bon Ton might have been part of the Shortt collection.

Monday, June 15, 2009. I picked the sire up from Doug Eckel in March 2006.

Sunday, August 2, 2009. Hillii Grey - According to Doug Eckel this cultivar is from the Jerry Horne collection. Originally bought from Doug as a pup, it is a rather slow grower and sparse pupper. The tomentum on the fronds will give it a greyish look in the right light. There are various sizes of the Hillii Grey that are currently available for sale.
