Po Keng Teng (Chinese: 寶鏡頂) is a mountain inside Clear Water Bay Country Park, Sai Kung, New Territories, Hong Kong, with a height of 127 metres (417 ft).[1][2]
Geography
[edit]Po Keng Teng is in the Clear Water Bay Peninsula region. To the west is a golf club.
There are no public roads that lead to the mountain because a private golf club separates it from the nearest public road. The trails to the summit are rather rocky, and not maintained by the government, so proper hiking footwear is advisable. The cliff on its east side is very steep.
Geology
[edit]
Po Keng Teng is formed by volcanic rocks, like many of the tallest mountains in Hong Kong, such as Tai Mo Shan. Some shorter mountains in Hong Kong are formed by older granitic rocks.

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.
