Walter Herron Taylor III (July 5, 1872 – August 1, 1960) was an American football coach. He was the first head football coach at the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) in Lexington, Virginia, serving for the 1891 season and compiling a record of 3–0–1.[1] Taylor was the son of banker, lawyer, soldier, politician, author, and railroad executive Walter H. Taylor, who was also an aide-de-camp to Robert E. Lee.[2]
VMI did compete in one football game in 1873, but no records were kept on the coach. The one-game season was a loss to Washington and Lee.[3]

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.
