Carmel Plaza[1] is a 111,980 sq ft (10,403 m2) self-described "upscale, outdoor lifestyle shopping center" in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, in the block bounded by Ocean, Junipero, Mission and 7th streets.[2] It is currently anchored by Anthropologie and is home to luxury goods retailers such as Tiffany. Three stories of shops surround an open-air courtyard.
Despite its small size, the center has been host to small branches of three department stores. At opening on August 18, 1960,[3][4] I. Magnin opened a 10,000 sq ft (930 m2) store here.[5] Both the store and the center were designed by architect Olof Dahlstrand.[6] Joseph Magnin opened in 1974.[7] After the Joseph Magnin chain closed in 1984, Saks Fifth Avenue opened on May 31, 1986.[8]
The shopping mall was built in 1960 by Gerson Bakar and Steve Jacobs. It was sold to Macerich in 1998, and again to the O'Connor Group in 2012.[9]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
