Xuanzhou Wu (Chinese: 宣州吳語; pinyin: Xuānzhōu Wúyǔ) is the western Wu Chinese language, spoken in and around Xuancheng, Anhui province. The language has declined since the Taiping Rebellion, with an influx of Mandarin-speaking immigrants from north of the Yangtze River.

  1. 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.
