History
[edit]
In the early 19th century, Airėnai estate belonged to the Dukes Giedraičiai. In 1860, Airėnai was briefly described by Władysław Syrokomla in his ethnographic study of the environs of Vilnius city. He wrote:
Rich village houses, convenient tavern. People are well-off in this village.
— Władysław Syrokomla, Wycieczki po Litwie w promieniach od Wilna
In 1864, there were eight houses in Airėnai village and 44 inhabitants: eight were Eastern Orthodox (see Geisiškės for migration history) and 36 Catholics. Dukštos oak forest with a 2.2-kilometre (1.4 mi) walkway and Bradeliškės or Airėnai stone with undecipherable runes is located near the village. In the Neris river, there is a conglomerate stone named after the village.

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.
