The Cèze (French pronunciation: [sɛz]; Occitan: Céser) is a karstic French river, a right tributary of the Rhône.[1] It runs through the departments of Lozère and Gard in the Occitanie region. It is 128 km (80 mi) long,[2] and its basin area is 1,360 km2 (530 sq mi).[3] Its source is in the Cévennes mountains, near Saint-André-Capcèze. It flows through Bessèges, Saint-Ambroix, Bagnols-sur-Cèze, and it flows into the Rhône at Codolet, southwest of Orange.
Its longest tributaries are the Luech, Auzon, Tave, Ganière and Aiguillon.[2]
In the dry season, the Cèze sometimes dries up.[4]

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.
