The Virden Oil Capitals are a Canadian junior 'A' ice hockey team based in Virden, Manitoba. The Oil Capitals are members of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League.
History
[edit]The franchise was founded as the Winnipeg Rangers in 1956. The Rangers became the St. Boniface Saints in 1967 and later the Winnipeg Saints in 2000. The Oil Capitals were created in the spring of 2012 when a group of local investors purchased the Saints franchise and relocated it to Virden to play at newly constructed Tundra Oil & Gas Place.[1]
The team has won five Turnbull Cups (Rangers in 1961 and 1966; Saints in 1971, 1981, and 1994) and finished runner-up on seven occasions (Rangers in 1960; Saints in 1969, 1993, 2008, 2010, and 2012; Oil Capitals in 2018).

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.
