Mihăilești is a town located in Giurgiu County, Muntenia, Romania. It administers three villages: Drăgănescu, Novaci and Popești. It officially became a town in 1989, as a result of the Romanian rural systematization program.
The town stands beside the river Argeș, which at this point is dammed, forming a lake about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) long. It was created as part of the Danube–Bucharest Canal project and feeds a hydro-electric plant.
Argedava
[edit]Popești village is the location of an important archeological discovery: a large Dacian settlement believed by some historians such as Vasile Pârvan and Radu Vulpe to be the Argedava mentioned in the Decree of Dionysopolis. This ancient source links Argedava with the Dacian king Burebista, and it is believed to be his court or capital.

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.
