Originating in the Caribbean with Indian roots, a roti is a wrap style sandwich filled with either curried or sometimes stewed meats or vegetables wrapped inside a dhalpuri,[3] paratha, or dosti roti.[4] Roti is eaten widely across the Caribbean.[5] As Indo-Caribbeans immigrated to other countries, especially in North America and Europe, they brought with them the roti and opened roti shops to sell it.

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.
