John Fardell (born 1967)[1] is an English cartoonist, and author and illustrator of children's books.
Work
[edit]Fardell has been a regular contributor to the adult comic Viz, and has created and drawn two of the most popular and long-running strips, The Modern Parents[2] and The Critics, and also Ferdinand the Foodie and Desert Island Teacher. His strip The Modern Parents portrays the way a mother and father insist on bringing up their young sons by following a doctrine they term "ethical awareness", much to the children's detriment.[2] He also contributed illustrations and comic strips to 1990s video game magazine Electric Brain.[3]
Fardell is also an author and illustrator of children's books. To date he has produced three children's adventure novels: The Seven Professors of the Far North (2004),[4] The Flight of the Silver Turtle (2006), and The Secret of the Black Moon Moth (2009) – and three children's picture books: Manfred the Baddie (2008),[2] Jeremiah Jellyfish Flies High (2010), and The Day Louis Got Eaten (2011).

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.
