S BRITISH FERNS 



at the variety hunter, it may be well to point out the difference 

 that exists between the undiscriminating raiders above described, 

 and the fortunate variety finder who bags a single plant, and by 

 propagating it freely, possibly by the hundred, enriches his own 

 and his friends' collections, and thus, instead of destroying, adds 

 definitely to the ferny wealth already accumulated.
