I received an answer to my question of my acquaintance, the cyathea borbonica is a tree fern endemic to RĂ©union and generally found [ as Steve pointed ] olso Cyathea canaliculata. He forgot to take a picture, and the spores leaves in a travel guide preserved, Anyway, I have paid more attention myself than I was also able to see it ! Gr. Eduard. |

Hi, I have photographed this tree fern again, this variant cooperi as steve lodges him still brings Doubt from the man who harvested the spores in La reunion, it's a C.cooperi or maybe a C. borbonica like the hair very short and brown ? I've looked at the images of this species and has smooth round spots on his trunk, no stipe as with most other types of Alsophila! Gr. Eduard. |

Your spore-propagated specimen can't possibly be borbonica, Ed - yours is very definitely a scaley Sphaeropteris, not an Alsophila...and looks suspiciously cooperi-like from where I'm sitting. The in-habitat photo, though, does look genuinely Alophila... and I think I can make out borbonica's distinctive 'wig' crown too. |

Do not think this is the right tree fern species, resembles a Diplazium Australe! Gr. Eduard. |
