Orippo was a Roman town of Hispania Baetica, on the road from Gades to Hispalis.[1][2]
History
[edit]
Orippo is commonly identified with Villa de dos Hermaños, though some have mentioned Alcala de Guadaira and Torre de los Herberos.[2]
Ancient coins of the place often have a bunch of grapes, showing that the neighbourhood was rich in wines, a character which it still preserves.[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.
