120 BRITISH FERNS. — SUB-ORDER II. TRIBE 10 . 
Found in 1870, in South Devon, by the late Miss Seymour. A 
dense form. 18x7 inches. 
29. Stansfieldii, Lowe (divisolobum densum Stansfield, Jones). 
Raised by Messrs. F. W. and H. Stansfield, at Sale. Somewhat 
resembling the plumose divisolobes. 
30. stipula, Lowe (divisolobum stipulation, Jones). Raised by 
the late Mr. Carbonell, from spores given him by the late Colonel

Section 8. PLUMOSO-DI VISOLOBUM. 
(Like divisolobum, but with greatly increased development of 
leafy part of frond.) 
*1. Baldwini, Lowe. Raised by the late Colonel Jones, about 1885, 
from a bulbil of “densum,” and given whilst young to Mr. John 
Loraine Baldwin. The finest of all the plumose divisolobums. 
Costa of the pinnae very thin, and the pinnae imbricate ; quadripin- 
nate. The divisions finer and more feather-like than any other 
variety. 22x8 inches. Colonel Jones’s greatest achievement. 
*2. densum, Lowe (plumoso-divisolobum densum, Jones). Raised 
in 1878 by Mr. E. F. Fox from spores of decomposition splendens 
given him by Colonel Jones. Length, 24 inches. A mossy mass of 
foliage. Todea-like in appearance. Sterile, but bulbiferous. Qua- 
dri pinnate and plumose. 
3. dissectum, Pearson. A very finely-cut variety. Raised by 
Mr. Pearson. 
4. grande, Lowe (plumoso-divisolobum grande, Jones). Raised 
in 1885 by Mr. E. F. Fox. A cross between decompositum-splen- 
dens and plumosum of Wollaston. Far superior to the parent 
plumosum. [Mr. Fox has a large number of forms not yet named 
from this batch of seedlings.] 
*5. imbricatum, Lowe. Raised about 1885, from a bulbil of 
“densum.” Exceedingly imbricated and plumose. Baldwini and 
imbricatum were considered two of the most notable varieties at 
the Royal Horticultural Society’s Fern Show, on July 22 and 23, 
1890. 
6. Iaxum, Lotve (plumoso-divisolobum laxum, Jones). Raised in 
the same batch of seedlings with densum and robustum by Mr. 
E. F. Fox. Length, 24 inches. Quadripinnate ; and more lax than 
densum or robustum. Sterile, but copiously bulbiferous. 
7. Pearsoni, Lowe. Divisolobum plumosum Pearson, Jones. 
A good plumose form. 
8. robustum, Lowe (plumoso-divisolobum robustum, /ones). 
Raised by Mr. E. F. Fox. Not as luxuriant or so finely divided 
as densum. Pinnae somewhat curt and rounded. Sterile, and very 
sparely bulbiferous.
