Huntly Thistle are an association football club based in the New Zealand town of Huntly, in the northern Waikato region. The club currently have teams in the WaiBop Premiership, Senior Men's, Senior Women's, Juniors and WSSFA College. Earlier points in their history they were one of the stronger teams in the Waikato. The club played in the top flight of the Northern League in the early 1970s, and at that time contained the club's only full international player, Jim Moyes.
The team has reached the last-32 stage of the Chatham Cup on three occasions, in 1971, 1977, and 1989. Early records of the Chatham Cup are incomplete, but it appears likely that Thistle reached far later stages of the competition during the competition's early years, as they were regular entrants from the fourth year of the competition's existence, at which time far fewer teams took part, and qualified as Waikato regional champions in 1926, 1931, 1951, 1953, and 1955.

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.
