Critical response[edit]
The book Syndicated Television: The First Forty Years, 1947-1987 suggested that one problem with Romance Theatre was, "the producers of the series made an inviolate promise to the viewers that each of the five-part stories would end happily, and what true soap-opera fan wanted to see that?"[5]

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.
