The Tampa Bay Krewe, or Krewe Rugby, are a rugby union team based in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida. They are members of the Florida Rugby Union,[1] the organizational body for rugby union in Florida, and Division II side in USA Rugby,[2] plus a youth side and a social side. Krewe Rugby was founded in 1991 by ten Tampa Bay area professionals who had previously been members of different novice to semi-professional level rugby union teams.[3] The Krewe plays other Division- II Rugby Clubs from cities across Florida, including Jacksonville, Orlando, Naples, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami.[4]
The Krewe is one of the Florida Rugby Union's most successful clubs, with its various teams having brought home several state and regional titles, including the 2009 Florida Cup and USA Rugby Division II Championships.[5] The Tampa Krewe won the 2010 USA Rugby Division II National Championship,[6] and returned to the USA Rugby Division II National Championship Finals match to take on the New Orleans Rugby Club in 2011.[7] In 2013, the Tampa Krewe defeated the Naples Hammerhead Rugby Club 31–29 to win the Division II Florida Cup Championship.[8]

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.
