The Tel Aviv District (Hebrew: מָחוֹז תֵּל אָבִיב; Arabic: منطقة تل أبيب) is the geographically smallest yet also the most densely populated of the six administrative districts of Israel, with a population of 1.35 million residents.[4] It is 98.9% Jewish and 1.10% Arab (0.7% Muslim, 0.4% Christian).[citation needed]
The district's capital is Tel Aviv, one of the two largest cities in Israel and the country's economic, business and technological capital. The metropolitan area created by the Tel Aviv district and its neighboring cities is locally named Gush Dan.
It is the only one of the six districts not adjacent to either the West Bank or an international border, being surrounded on the north, east, and south by the Central District and on the west by the Mediterranean Sea. The population density of the Tel Aviv district is 7,259/km2.

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.
