Henry II (origin and ancestry unknown; died 3 September 1063) was Bishop of Augsburg from 1047 to 1063.
Prior to his episcopal tenure Henry II was a member of the Hofkapelle[1] of Emperor Henry III and, from 1046 to 1047, the head of the Italian chancellery, in which documents that concerned the Italian lands of the Empire were prepared. His career is thus typical of the Ottonian-Salian imperial church. As Bishop of Augsburg, Henry was responsible for the expansion of Augsburg Cathedral and the episcopal palace.[2]

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.
