Asplenium capillipoides

Asplenium ×capillipoides is a hybrid spleenwort named by Fraser-Jenkins in 2008 and known only from Nepal. It has no georeferenced records, so these conditions come from a representative Nepalese mid-mountain climate. Grow it as a small, cool rock fern with a monsoon summer and a dry winter.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes exist. As a small hybrid rock spleenwort it probably grows in shaded rock crevices in the Himalayan mid-hills, but this is inferred from the genus.

There are no records. The climate point was placed at about 2290 m as a regional guess.
