Asplenium garhwalense

Asplenium ×garhwalense is a West Himalayan hybrid spleenwort named by Fraser-Jenkins and Khullar in 2008 from the Garhwal region. It has no georeferenced wild records, so there is no usable measured climate; cultivate it like the temperate Himalayan rock spleenworts it is related to, with cold winters.
